30 cards

I came across this Australian magazine, similar to the British magazine of the same name. The image seems to show someone playing Football, not Australian Rules Football. As it indicated that a free plate was included I set about trying to compile a checklist. That was easy, The Cartophilic Society of Great Britain includes the set in their book, The Australian and New Zealand Index, listing 27 subjects. But despite that I think the set probably comprises of 30 cards, with the cards being included with the magazine every fortnight. I haven't been able to track down the card included with this issue of the magazine, dated 14 June, 1924 and there are also two more missing from the checklist.
