Wizard Football Towns and their Crests Nottingham

The Wizard Football Towns and their Crests unnumbered card Nottingham, Luton, Methil and Camberwell published by DC Thomson in 1931. A rather unusual issue, with four town and city crests on the front and their associated football clubs on the reverse. Nottingham features both Forest and Notts County, along with Luton Town, East Fife (Methil) and Corinthians (Camberwell). It would appear that the latter three were without nicknames at the time.
