15 Sheffield Wednesday team photos from every decade since the 50s

In the halcyon days of football publications like Shoot! and Match, excited supporters up and down the land would eagerly await their favourite club’s new team photo to appear in the must-have magazines.

Fans would then pay homage to their heroes by proudly displaying their team photos on their bedroom walls or even as covers on school books – and Wednesdayites were no different, with posters of Chris Waddle, Mike Lyons and David Hirst taking pride of place in many Owls-supporting homes.

Here, we’ve delved into our archive to bring you 15 team photos from every decade since the 50s featuring some of Wednesday’s best-known names.
