Hi all

Anyone know which series this Bloomer card is from?? Looks like a trade card but never seen it before.

Many thanks

Okay, that didn't work!

Any idea what I might have done wrong??

Hi, you can see it if you right click on the icon and open image in a new tab.

Can't answer your question though!

Hi Pete, yes that's weird, right click on the icon and then click "Save As" - if anyone fancies doing that and letting me know if they have a clue about this card!

The card is not on the Steve Bloomer web site. https://stevebloomer.weebly.com/cards--books.html
The unknown picture looks very similar to the one used on the 1910 Copes Noted Footballers and the 1912 FJ Smith 150 Footballers cards.
Bloomer returned to Derby in 1910 from Middlesbrough and I think he may be wearing a Middlesbrough shirt on all three cards. Was the unknown card in the Arthur Johnson auction last weekend?

Yes, I had a go but got well outbid. Someone was quite excited by it as the lot went for £500 + commission. Still curious to know where it's from, tho.

Many thanks for the info Thumbs Up
