65 cards

The 1949 North American Football Confederation Championship was held in Mexico City. Three teams took part, Cuba, Mexico and the United States, with Canada deciding against sending a team. Each team played the others twice. The results were as follows:

Mexico 6-0 United States

Mexico 2–0 Cuba

Cuba 1–1 United States

Mexico 6–2 United States

United States 5–2 Cuba

Mexico 3–0 Cuba

Mexico (8 pts) were champions and they and the United States as runners-up (3 pts) qualified for the 1950 World Cup tournament in Brazil.

The album is 6¾" x 10" and the checklist is incomplete and the cards are in a number of different sizes. The backs are plain and it's likely the cards were cut from sheets.
