P.A. Adolph (Subbutteo) - Soccer Market - 2nd Series


1952?
Soccer Market
P.A. Adolph (Subbutteo)
44 cards

I managed to pick up the Cardiff City cards from this game many moons ago. The whole package is highly collectable, especially among Subbuteo collectors. I used to think this was the only version, but the game was available from the 1947-48 season, throughout the 1950's, right up until 1964-65. I'll include details of another version later. A complete version of this collection is currently on sale on the Subbuteo World website for £349.
I'll include details of the first version later.
