1977 proved to be a year of celebration with underdogs Leeds RL winning the Challenge Cup after beating Widnes at Wembley while cricket legend Geoff Boycott notching up a century of centuries.

Enjoy these images, a mix from the YEP archive and others published courtesy of photographic archive Leodis, which is run by Leeds Library & Information Service, celebrating a year in the life of your city.
