Tobacco Products Corporation of Canada (Canada) - (C140) Canadian Sports Champions


1924
(C140) Canadian Sports Champions
Tobacco Products Corporation of Canada
Canada
50 cards

This is a collection covers a wide range of sports, including rugby but there aren't any footballers. The cards are unnumbered and the backs carry a small biography of the featured sporting personality. The backs also feature sporting equipment and it is known as a multi-backed set because there are variations, some cards feature baseballs, tennis balls, golf balls, baseball bats, tennis racquets, etc., but each card only includes one item of sporting equipment. Three of the cards advertise soccer balls and that's the only reason this set is featured here.
