1965

Ovaltine Biscuits
25 cards (1 football)
The same set of 25 cards was issued by various companies between 1962 and 1967. Other issuers include Ching's (a Channel Islands tobacco company), Cromwell Stores, B.T. Tea, an Anonymous issue and Tonibell (Did You Know?). Unfortunately I have been able to locate a photo of the back of the football card so I've included the back of one of the other cards as an example.
