Anyone collect these? They look great but seem very expensive for a tiny card. |

Only got a couple - there aren't many Cardiff City ones out there.
I do keep a database that currently holds over 4000 illustrations of Baines cards and those of his contemporaries like Sharpe, Briggs, Richardson, etc. I've been compiling this for many years.
Some of them are very nice. Some rugby ones from the late 1880s were printed for specific cup-ties.
Leslie Millman has some nice ones on his Flickr site. |

Anyone on here buy these at an auction a while back...
The back of one card is shown "Campbell", don't know this issuer and would like to get scans of the front and back of this card.

Very nice, I saw that auction and already added those cards to my database. I know of two other Sunderland Albion cards. |

I'm not sure what the other Sunderland card was all about. A player arrested by the police ( some things never change) . The back was plain, so i didn't put in a bid. |

I have a Chester Baines card. I have been told it is a rare one; can anyone confirm if this is the case.
If anyone wants a scan let me know.

I'd like to see scans of your Chester - front AND back if possible.
I know of 6 Chester cards but 1 and possibly 2 others are Rugby not Football.

That's good doing, I only know of 14...
By the way, I've been meaning to contact you for a couple of months. Have you seen all the Stanley Matthews cards issued by Sportkings in the USA in their 'E' series of cards?
I think I can knock up a list of them if you are interested.

Yep, South Shore amalgamated with Blackpool, one of the 25 cards I have is of South Shore
If you want me to send you scans of any of my cards then just let me know.
Re the Stan Matthews USA cards from the Sportsking series .... I didn't know of these so would appreciate a list of the Matthews cards please.

A very nice card, thanks for sharing. Petty & Sons cards aren't seen very often.
Any chance of a scan of the back of the card?

Wow... you've made my day. I haven't seen so many old Baines cards for a long time. I am as interested in the backs of the cards as I am in the fronts. I've got a list of nearly 140 issuers/printers besides Baines, Briggs, Richardson, Sharpe.
Perhaps you'd be kind enough to scan the backs of one or two of the cards that appear on your Flickr page?
