W.D. & H.O. Wills - Sporting Terms


1900
Sporting Terms
W.D. & H.O. Wills
Australia
25 cards (10 Cricket, 7 Cycling, 8 Football)

These cards use the same illustrations that appear in a similar set issued by William Clarke & Sons - William Clarke & Sons - Sporting Terms. Most of the Football Terms feature rugby, with only one dedicated football card and a few more (Well Tackled, Full Back and Half Back) that could be interpreted as football. Each card can be found with one of two different back designs.
