1955
(THO-125-4/THO-201) County Cricketers
D.C. Thomson / The Wizard
64 cards
More cards from this large collection. Although the footballing exploits of some of these cricketers is referenced in the potted biographies, those of Denis Compton are not, even though he is probably the most famous footballer of the bunch. For that reason alone I have included his card amongst the illustrations. Again, a big thank you to the CardHawk website for allowing me to use their scans.
