37 caricatures

I was sent a scan of one of these the other day and asked if I knew where it came from. They appear on eBay from time to time pasted onto card and usually sold singularly. This is a list of all the caricatures of footballers printed in the book, which come 3 per panel, except for the anonymous ones, which are used as illustrations in quizzes. The book includes what must be well over a hundred caricatures, all drawn by Spark of the London "Evening News". They are not numbered and are numbered here for reference purposes only.
