  1. Alan, re the 43. Banks error card - 'plain back' - could you clarify please or perhaps you have a scan?. Does the back of the card have nothing all?, is it gray & completely blank? Thank you Mark

    1. Hi Mark,

      That's correct. Just a blank back. I'd guess the reverse of one complete sheet didn't go through the printing process, but that's the only card I've ever come across.

  2. Hi Alan, Thanks for the clarification.

  3. Hi Alan, Just checking. Did all of the cards have the club crest on them, because I have found a Mel Charles card without a crest. Is this an error? Variation?
    Thanks, Dave

    1. Hi Dave, Most did but about half a dozen over the two sets didn't. They include Ivor Allchurch, Bobby Collins and Stan Mortensen.
