Football cards and stickers issued around the world, from the 1880's to the present day and even some that haven't been issued yet. I don't have any cards for sale, nor do I provide valuations, this blog is just a means of passing on information I have gathered over many decades of collecting. Alan Jenkins.

D.C. Thomson ~ Adventure / The Vanguard
40 cards
Each week five cards were issued, but only one card in any one of the two comics. I should have thought that it would have made it difficult to complete a set.

Wonderful site. My grandad Jesse Thomas Williams is shown in the Adventure and Vanguard 1925 cards. I would love to obtain one if at all possible.
