1 booklet

A couple of decades ago Robert Muat produced a booklet that displayed all 90 of the 'Big Heads' cards. It's been out of print for a long time and Robert has decided to update the booklet, producing a new edition in full colour. The A5 16 page booklet is a really good publication with all the cards shown being in very good to excellent condition. He also includes examples of some of the other Sports Favourites cards issued by A. & J. Donaldson.
Robert has some copies available for sale. The price is £10, inclusive of postage and packing. Payment can be sent to R.T. Muat, 7 Greenbank Row, Edinburgh, EH10 5SY.

The write up with these cards stated "Reproduction of an un-issued card drawn by John Barr for Donaldson's 'Sports Favourites'." Strange items that I've only recently became aware of. No idea how old they are. I've stated the 1950s, but I could be completely wrong. They must be very rare if they do come from the time when Donaldson's Sports Favourites were issued. Are there any others? Is it a coincidence that the three cards I know of are all Manchester City players?
