Greene King
3 beermats

A set of three beermats, all three were needed to participate in the competition to win tickets to the 1982 World Cup Finals in Spain. I think I can recognise Peter Shilton, Kevin Keegan, Mick Mills and Paul Mariner, but I probably wouldn't put money on any of them.

J. Baines - Football Cards (99) - Featherstone's

Football Cards
J. Baines
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.
Unfortunately, I don't have a scan of the obverse of this card.
