1937
(LEW-060) Footballers
Lewis's Hollywood Scale
5 cards known
These cards were issued with weighing scales and are the earliest football cards produced for this medium that I have ever come across. These pictures are of poor quality but these cards are very scarce and I managed to get these images in a period in time when scanners were yet to be invented and photocopiers were a fairly new concoction.
UPDATE (30-11-2024 01:06): Scans of a card featuring the young Matt Busby added, getting decent images of one of these cards has been a long time coming, and I mean a long time. I found the Joe Mercer images about 40 years ago!
