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.

This is a Sporting Life Art Card. Information is taken from the description on eBay:
This card is hand assembled and distressed to varying degrees to reflect or simulate a vintage, period-like item, but is a newer product! Due to this process, the average card ranges from Fair to Very Good. Only approximately two dozen (or less) of any card will ever be produced.

Tor Henrik von der Ohe has informed me of an error card in this collection. W. Bradhsaw is actually Tom Bradshaw. I've included a scan of his card from This Years Top-Form Footballers card set issued by The Rover storypaper, where his name is indicated correctly. Don't go looking for a corrected card as one doesn't exist.
11. W. Bradshaw (Bury) - error - player is Tom Bradshaw

20,000+ cards
J. Baines was not the first to sell football and cricket cards in the North of England in the late 1880's but he was the most prolific and the business survived into the 1920's. I've always been interested in the various issuers and the businesses that took advantage of craze of collecting football and cricket cards. I thought I would delve into my database and shows some of these interesting cards from a bygone age.
