Rogar Pashby has been in touch:

I have just browsed your site again and come across the Webcosa Football Bingo gum wrappers of the early 1960s. This has helped me tremendously as I missed out on an unidentified wax paper item of Ray Wilson on eBay a few months ago and now I know what it was! Not that it helps me much though as I didn't win it... I've attached the picture from eBay which you might choose to add to the ones already on show.

I've had an e-mail from Denis Eastham, attaching the above photo:

I've just seen your Football Cartophilic Info Exchange website re. the Webcosa Football Bingo Wrappers and have come across 6 wax wrappers amongst my old bubblegum cards and attach a photograph of these.
You will see that the cutting of the wrappers is so misalligned that the wrong footballer name appears on 4 of the 6 wrappers. I assume this is not an uncommon occurence and makes the wrappers worthless.
Not sure if this photograph is of any assistance to you in your search but thought I would make contact anyway.
I should be happy to receive your comments.
Kind regards

Thanks for taking the time to share the photos of your Webcosa Football Bingo Wrappers. The cut is bad isn't it. I was pleased to discover that the R. Hunt one is of the Colchester United player. I knew there was a R. Hunt in the collection, but thought it might have been Liverpool's Roger Hunt. It's nice to clear that one up and it takes us one step nearer to completing the checklist for this collection.

I've included a photo of Colchester United's Ron Hunt to confirm that he is the player featured on the wrapper.

These wrappers were intended to be collected and traded in for prizes. Each can be found with and without the club name below the footballers name. Webcosa supplied Football Bingo cards and the idea was to collect wrappers from all 25 clubs on the card to qualify for a prize, but many of the wrappers didn't include the name of the club, making those wrappers ineligible for the competition. There were lots of different Football Bingo cards and they are also very collectible, which I'll cover later.
These are not to be confused with another series of Football caricatures issued by Webcosa which come with a yellow background.

The list below is split into three sections:
1.  List of players and thie clubs (listed in club order)
