Robert Sinclair's Cigarettes - Sunderland Footballers


1898
Sunderland Footballers
Robert Sinclair's Cigarettes
Unknown number

Further to Peter's research into Robert Sinclair cigarette cards I have to agree that the Newcastle United cards come from a different series to the Sunderland ones. As I stated previously, a new card was added to the list of those recorded by the Cartophilic Society of Great Britain and Peter has sent me a scan of this same card. It's design is different to the cards of the Newcastle United players so here is a separate listing for the Sunderland cards.

Any help with showing illustrations of the other cards shown here, would be much appreciated.
UPDATE (12-01-2021 16:11):  Scott Leventhal has provided photos of a card he has just added to his collection, Sunderland's J.E. Doig. It's not in very good condition but these cards are so rare that a card in any condition is a plus.
