Barratt & Co. - (BAR-350/ BAR-72-09) Famous Footballers A9


1961
(BAR-350/ BAR-72-09) Famous Footballers A9
Barratt & Co.
50 cards

There are three different official versions of the A9 set and all three are shown above, see the Danny Malloy cards. I've added the Ron Springett card to an errors/varieties section, but I am not sure if a corrected card was issued.
UPDATE (20-04-2017 14:05):  Roger Long is looking for five of the misprinted cards labelled as A8 - 7 (Derek Tapscott), 13 (Ronnie Allen), 14 (Tony Knapp), 37 (Maurice Setters) and 39 (Graham Leggatt). If you can help Roger contact me and I'll put you in touch with him.
