Arsenal F.C. - Lambert Jackson, Photographer
Unknown number
These postcards were printed by Lambert Jackson, Photographer, 25 Holloway Arcade, N7; who was Arsenal F.C.'s official photographer. It's quite possible that these postcards were issued over a number of seasons during the 1930's.

After receiving further information it's been possible to identify which years some of these cards were issued.

1926-27
Cardiff City Footballers
W.H. Webber, Mackintosh Place, Cardiff

Postcards issued by club photographers W.H. Webber. I've no idea how many different players are represented. Any help would be much appreciated. There must be plenty of others available - players like Len Davies, Hughie Ferguson and Fred Keenor. This was the season when Cardiff City won the 'English Cup', the only time the F.A. Cup has been won by a team from outside England.

This is one of these series, featuring players from Birmingham City, Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion. I'll be featuring more over the coming weeks. As always, there are gaps in the checklist that I would love to be able to fill.
