Roger Long has provided scans of a Jack Froggatt card. He doesn't have the Leciester City card in his collection. If anyone has a spare they are willing to part with, Roger would be pleased to hear from you. Contact me and I will put you in touch with him. In the meantime I've amended the back of a copy of the card to show the change of club. It's more than likely that the card will also have an amended biography. A scan of the proper card will be added as soon as one becomes available.
These two cards have been acknowledged by the Cartophilic Society of Great Britain as variations.
Roger Long is looking to purchase the card on the right (Leicester City). Please contact me if you have this card available for sale or trade.
UPDATE (25-01-2017 15:27): Garry Daynes has provided a scan of a real Jack Froggatt variation card showing the amended biography.
UPDATE (09-05-2017 14:51): Roger Long is indebted to Garry Daynes, who has today provided him with the Leicester City version of this card in excellent condition. He now has all 23 Variety Cards in the Barratt Famous Footballers 'A' series, as are recorded at today's date.
