Football cards and stickers issued around the world, from the 1880's to the present day and even some that haven't been issued yet. I don't have any cards for sale, nor do I provide valuations, this blog is just a means of passing on information I have gathered over many decades of collecting. Alan Jenkins.

Vladimir Vidas sent me an e-mail asking who Erikson was, thinking that it might be Bill Eckersley. On checking I noticed that 'Erikson' is actually Alf Ramsey but I couldn't identify the player listed as 'Ramsey'. I then noticed some other discrepancies so I thought I'd go through all the stickers trying to uncover other errors. I'm not sure if I've identified some of the players correctly but there are still some gaps, Finney looks a little like Jim Dickinson to me, but so too does Dickinson. I don't think Billy Wright nor Stanley Matthews feature. I've also included a list of England's 1950 World Cup squad.

I think Ramsey is Henry Cockburn, Wright is John Aston, Dickinson is Jimmy Mullen and Matthews is Willie Watson.
ReplyDeleteHi Phil,
DeleteI knew a few of them are wrong. It makes you wonder how many are wrong through the whole collection!
