Amalgamated Press / The Champion
32 (8 footballers)

Uncut sheets, as issued. The sheets are unnumbered, I don't know what order they were issued in, so they are numbered here for reference purposes only and only five of the eight sheets are shown at present.
UPDATE (01-02-2018 12:39):  Brian Jukes has provided scans of two more sheets which also means that the four sportsmen on the eighth sheet are also known.
UPDATE (03-05-2020 15:35):  Issue number and date added for sheet 5.
