F.K.S. - FAA-0 The Wonderful World of Soccer Stars 1967-1968


1967-68
FAA-0 The Wonderful World of Soccer Stars 1967-1968 
F.K.S.
330 stickers

I call them stickers, but they didn't have adhesive backs. F.K.S. called them 'picture stamps' This collection is the rarest of the F.K.S. albums, as it had a limited release. The album and packets are very similar to the ones used for the 1968-69 season. They are easy to identify as the backs of the stickers only include the players name and club, whereas the 1968-69 stickers included a short biography of each player. 
It's possible that as many as three different backs can be found, printed in black, brown and blank, though the brown version just looks like faded black print to me. Nigel's Webspace - Galleries of English Football Cards 1965/66 - 1979/80 includes a lot more information on the backs and the packets.
