340 cards

Recent correspondence regarding these cards reminded me that I had some additional information stashed away somewhere, which I eventually uncovered. So, here's a list of players in this collection. I still don't understand how this set comes together. Cards were issued by different companies and I've no idea which cards on this list were issued by each company. The same companies issued cards with different brand names printed on the backs of the cards. The cards are numbered here for information purposes only, the cards have numbers on the backs but they aren't recorded in this list
N.B. Gau means District in German.

Paul Chauveau has been in touch regarding the two cards shown above, that have appeared in previous posts.
I recently purchased the "McPhail" card in this set because it also shows Ted Sagar in goal for England.
The photo on the card is a well known image from the England v Scotland match at Wembley in April 1936 and can be found on the net. The interesting thing is that Tommy Walker scored the penalty for Scotland and McPhail didn't even appear in the match.
That leads me to the "McCulloch" card and I notice that it is implied that the keeper is Ted Sagar and this is from the same match, If it is it seems that he has changed his kit at half time?
Regards, Paul

This is a request for information. If you've stumbled across this page, hopefully you might have more than a passing interest in these cards. I don't know much about them. There seem to be a lot of them though. They seem to be issued by a number of different companies - see some of the illustrations. If you've got any information please get in touch.
