Football Team Folders English League Division II Nottingham Forest (1934)

Barratt & Co Football Team Folders English League Division II unnumbered card Nottingham Forest. Barratt issued three series of undated team folders, which are only identifiable by variations in the respective team squads. This edition is the third, published in 1934 and covering the 1934/35 season. Generally the Forest cards are listed by the third player - in this case Peacock, with the first and second editions being Smith and Graham respectively.

Barratt & Co Football Stars Francis 'Gerry' Morgan

Barratt & Co Football Stars unnumbered card F. Morgan. A series of 100, these cards are listed in catalogues as being published circa 1930 but are almost certainly older. Northern Irish international Morgan made his Forest debut on 11 November 1922 and played his final game, a home draw against Spurs, on 30 March 1929. These cards are now quite rare.

Barratt & Co Cricketers, Footballers & Teams Harold Wadsworth

Barratt & Co Cricketers, Footballers & Teams unnumbered card H. Wadsworth. This series is listed in catalogues as being published in 1926, which may be correct up to a point but some of the player to club variations are certainly no earlier than 1927.
The card appears in two versions, Leicester City and Notts Forest with the latter being much rarer. Wadsworth spent most of the 1926/27 season at Leicester City before moving to Forest in April 1927. He made his debut in a friendly at Northampton Town a month later, and only spent a year in Nottingham. Wadsworth played his final game for the club against West Bromwich Albion on 14 April 1928 before joining Millwall.
