I recently bought a picture which is the same as this one listed here, but it isn't numbered. I was wondering if anyone on here would have a better idea about it as I am stuck. Sorry if this isn't in the correct place but I suppose it is north end related

Check the mount, it is listed as being numbered on the mount, if it isn't then it isn't a limited edition and ask for your money back it will be a copy, then again if they were trying to sell non-limited editions, they would have added the number such as 53/750..

I would like to think it's the real deal as I did buy it from the national football museum, felt I had to take some of Preston back from there. Everything about it seems legit to me, it just isn't numbered

Email them about your concerns, it could be below the frame, if it comes from the NFM it will be authentic.

Having taken it out and looked at it there's nothing I can see, I'll have to email them and follow up on it. Thanks for the help, hopefully I've gotten some rare one off one 🤞.

If anyone's interested I'll update the thread once I've learned more

Personally, I'd side with the National Football Museum over a random Ebayer in Suffolk...
 
Could it be that the Ebay seller is making them appear to be "limited edition" when they actually aren't?
There is text at the bottom saying that it is one of 50 reproductions of the original drawing, signed by both Sir Tom and the artist and _/50 in the bottom left, although mine isn't numbered it simply shows /50
 
Get a magnifying glass out, see it has faded, edition numbers usually done in pencil, under a scope you will see where it was or still is.
Using my phone, I could see the grain of the paper but nothing to really suggest there was any number there to begin with. The signatures had different levels of pressure so I'm sure enough that they aren't printed on and was definitely signed by someone
