DON-060-1/DOZ-1-1 Sports Favourites
A. & J. Donaldson
534 cards
I have been very fortunate to have the help of Robert T. Muat, one of the foremost collectors of cards issued by A. & J. Donaldson and his Scottish contemporaries. Robert has taken the time to make many amendments to my original checklists, correcting errors, updating information and adding details that I didn't have. I've updated the links below as some of the old checklists have been removed to be replaced with newer ones today.
Right, where to start. I've dealt with some of the variations in this collection already - 'big' heads, golden series, etc. Links to these can be found below.
Where I can I've included the players initial, though this doesn't appear on the front of the cards. I've included the team name for the footballers even though it might not appear the same on the back of the card. For others I've just included the name of the sport that they play. A lot of this information has been gleaned from other sources, including a typed list that was sent to me many years ago. I don't profess to be any sort of expert when it comes to these cards, all I've done is try to include as much information as possible and highlight some of the variations that collectors try to track down.
My main interest is the football cards, so the checklist isn't complete, missing one cricketer and about a dozen speedway riders, some of which may not have been issued.
- The cards were issued in booklets of 8 or 9 cards - staple holes can be identified in many of the cards - and I've listed the contents of three different booklets at the end of the main checklist. The booklets are unnumbered and are numbered here for reference purposes only. If you know of any others, please get in touch.
- A number of cards were amended for one reason or another and those that I know of are listed after the main checklist.
- Two cards were issued for some numbers, these are all included in the main checklist and a they also appear in a special section at the end of the listing.
- Some of the high numbered cards had an additional numbering sequence on the back, and the ones I know of are identified against each of the cards, and again these are also listed separately, though this list is incomplete.
- I've included a illustrations of some of the variations on the backs of the cards. Some are printed in blue, most are printed black. There are many variations to the style of typeface used - bold, italics, serifs, uppercase, with and without 'Copyright'. Some collectors also take not of the colour of the card used - some are white, others buff. The cards also varied in size. I'd did start to itemize all the variations, but I gave that up after a couple of hours.
- An album was produced, to hold 240 cards and collectors were advised to use stamp hinges to attach the cards to the album, so as not to damage the backs of the cards. A serious collector would need at least two album, and some would even require a third.

E.& O.E.
No. 51 is Hagen on the front and Hagan on the back. He is also shown in Wednesday colours (bizarrely!!)
ReplyDeleteThank you, might show that card in a new post in a day or two.
DeleteHi Alan,
ReplyDeleteI recently acquired a few more of these, and found a few anomalies...
a. I have 2 x No. 39. One is H. long as per checklist, but the other is J. Bonnar (Arbroath) who is 128 on your checklist. The Bonnar card has now Address or "Copyright", so may be an early version (I think the early ones were like that) or one of the fake Donaldson cards mentioned.
b. I have some cards for numbers listed as not issued - 61 - W. Allison (Falkirk; 62 - J. McPhee (Falkirk);65 - A. Gunn (Dundee); 68 Jerry Dawson (Falkirk); 72 J. Urquhart (Heart of Midlothian);76 H. Mooney (Third Lanark):77 A. Beattie (Ayr United); 81 W. Reid (Third Lanark); 85 A. Palmer (Third Lanark); 89 T. Sloan (Heart of Midlothian); 90 A. Conn (Heart of Midlothian) All of them are the ones with blue printed writing on the back.
c. I also found one with a blank back which had the player name written on in hand - can't remember the name as I have mislaid the cardf whilst sorting!!
Regards, Dave
Hi Dave,
DeleteThanks for leaving a comment.
The card of Bonnar (Arbroath) comes from the Rogue series:
A. & J. Donaldson / Kiddy's Favourites ? (Anonymous) - Sports Favourites ~ Rogue series
https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogspot.com/2015/01/anonymous-j-donaldson-sports-favourites.html
I presume all the missing number cards (60 - 90) are all 'Big Heads'? These can be found in another checklist:
A. & J. Donaldson - DON-060-1/DOZ-1-1b Sports Favourites ~ Big Heads ~ 3rd issue
https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogspot.com/2015/04/a-j-donaldson-don-060-1doz-1-1b-sports.html
I hope this helps.
Alan! Fantastic - thank you. I’ve found the blank back card again - it is of J. Stirling of Third Lanark. No. 41.
DeleteHi Dave,
DeleteI don't think I've recorded any blank backed Donaldson cards. Would it be possible to get scans or photos of the front and the back? Don't worry if you can't.

Cheers,
Alan
Hello! Would anyone be able to tell me more about the history of A. & J. Donaldson... struggling to find any decent information on Google about this company and its provenance and how it came to be so involved in cards.
ReplyDeleteAlthough card # 376 gives the name 'A. Ormiston', the player is actually Alec Ormston of Stoke City. Alec Ormiston was a different player who played for Lincoln City and Chelsea.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your help.
