T.W. Markham / Picnic Cigarettes - Views of Bridgewater

T.W. Markham / Picnic Cigarettes

25 (1 football)

UPDATE (03-08-2025 15:59):  Paul Briers has spotted a second version of the 
Bridgewater A.F.C. card. The first one features 14 figures, but there are 17 in the second version and the kit is different too. I have included a better scan of the first version. I have also included scans of the backs of the cards even though they are blank.
The first Bridgewater A.F.C. was founded in 1898 and disbanded in 1902. A second Bridgewater A.F.C. was formed in 1904 and folded during the 1913-14 season. I wonder where these two team photos fit in with the history of the club?

  1. Hi Alan
    Check out Lodden’s, again (12/8/25).
    Another, different, T W Markham’s card of Bridgewater AFC in their upcoming auction.

    1. Thank you Paul, I know I would have missed that one.. Just finished going through the auction catalogue - some nice City Bakeries shields too.
      Cheers,
      Alan
