Here's another. There are probably only six, well I hope so, so one more to find.


1.  The Heaviest Goalkeeper (Willie J. 'Fatty' Foulkes)

2.  O.A.P.'s - Old Age Players (Jack Whattam, Billie Meredith)
3.  The Fastest Goal (Roberto Rivelino - Fluminese)
4.  The Longest F.A. Cup Tie (Stoke City v Bury, 1955)
5.  
6.  The Smallest League Crowd (Stockport County v Leicester City, 7 May, 1921 at Old Trafford, Manchester)

Mark Hughesdon has found another one, so that's at least six and we're missing two of them. In case anyone else is looking for these, they were usually found on the back page of comics - No. 6 was found on the back page of Star Wars Weekly

Another collectable cut-out, though rather large as it's a full page advert from a contemporary comic or magazine. This is no. 1 in a numbered series of adverts. I don't know how many there were in total.
