Fore Publications - Football Stars: Past-Present-Future - Book 3


1948
Football Stars: Past-Present-Future
Fore Publications
31 footballers

These were removed from three booklets called Football Stars: Past-Present-Future. Not cards, but nice additions to anyone's collection. For some I have the names of the players clubs, for others I don't. I'm also unaware of which issues the pages come from. Any help with this information would be much appreciated.

UPDATE (14-12-2024 17:43):  Following a comment from Jim listing all the photos in these three booklets (please be aware Book 1 featured Cricket Stars, I originally though that it was a football publication). I have decided to do a bit of housekeeping. I am re-naming this post as the checklist for Book 3. There are two other posts on my blog relating to this collection and they have been updated to checklist Book 2 and Book 4.

Front Cover.  Frank Swift (Manchester City
pg.2.  Advert
pg.3.  Tommy Lawton (Notts County)
pg.4.  Eric Day (Southampton)
pg.5.  Alf Ramsey (Southampton)
pg.6.  Alf Sherwood (Cardiff City)

pg.13.  Ken Willingham (Leeds United)
pg.14.  Fred Harris (Birmingham City)
pg.15.  Cyril Trigg (Birmingham City)
pg.16.  Peter Doherty (Huddersfield Town)
pg.17.  Bert Williams (Wolverhampton Wanderers)
pg.18.  Johnny Morris (Manchester United)
pg.19.  Jack Rowley (Manchester United)
pg.20.  Leslie Smith (Aston Villa)
pg.21.  Trevor Ford (Aston Villa)
pg.22.  Jack Vernon (West Bromwich Albion)
pg.23.  Frank Hodgetts (West Bromwich Albion)
pg.24.  Bill Shankly (Preston North End)
pg.25.  Sep Smith (Leicester City)
pg.26.  Mickie Fenton (Middlesbrough)
pg.27.  Eddie Quigley (Sheffield Wednesday)
