Lambert & Butler - Homeland Events

1928

Homeland Events

Lambert & Butler

50 cards (2 football related)

This set was issued by at least three different companies:

British American Tobacco Co. (without makers name on the back)

Lambert & Butler

W.D. & H.O. Wills (set of 54)

W.D. & H.O. Wills (set of 50, issued in New Zealand)

I don't have images of the Lambert & Butler versions of the football related cards so I've shown golf and fox hunting. These are the only two cards I have been able to confirm for this set, but the numbering seems to be the same as W.D. & H.O. Wills version issued in New Zealand, so this checklist needs to be worked on.
