Godfrey Phillips 'Pinnace' Footballers Sidney Gibson

Godfrey Phillips 'Pinnace' Footballers card #1705 S. Gibson, published in 1923.
The Pinnace series is massive collection of 2,462 different cards (including some rugby players) - and that doesn't take account duplicate cards of players appearing for different clubs or minor variations of the same card. If that isn't enough there are three different sizes too. The smallest are common enough to find, but the medium and postcard sized versions take some finding. The 'Pinnace' set was so large it was published over four years from 1920 to 1924.
