Hi Alan
DeleteThanks for the reply. I've had a look at the Magnet index but there doesn't appear to be a list for the Special Action Photos series 1922. They are different names and numbers than the Gem Library ones of the same year.
many thanks
Andrew
Hi Andrew,
DeleteThis is the correct collection:

Some cards were large, others were pair of smaller cards. The Cartophilic Society of Great Britain decided to list them with this title as the smaller ones were untitled even though they came from the set. I hope that makes sense. I compiled this one in the very early days of mt blog and didn't spend too much time on it. I've decided to add scans of one of the larger cards which might help clear up any misunderstanding.
Cheers,
Alan
thats great, thanks
