Famous Footballers in Action Charlton Athletic v Notts Forest

These cut-out and keep cards were given away with the magazine in December 1932 and January 1933 in six sheets. Very much an assumption on my part, but the picture could well be from Forest's visit to The Valley on 15 October 1932, the hosts winning 3-0 in front of a crowd of 10,635.

Quadriga Engelsk Tips Fodbold 1982-83 sticker #180 Calvin Plummer, released in Denmark. A very rare collection, this was the first season without FKS publishing an album.
