Welcome to this website dedicated to
English football cards, mainly covering the seasons 1965/66 to 1979/80.
This period saw a range of cards, stickers and other memorabilia
designed to attract the attention of young boys, myself included.
These cards are now quite collectable,
and occasionally valuable. This website is designed to help nostalgia
buffs relive some of the memories, and/or to assist collectors in
identifying and building their collections.
Use the menus to select a manufacturer/issuer or a season. The menus will
take you to more details of the cards and, where available, to galleries
of the cards. Some of the galleries also include special features to
add to your recollections of these great teams and players. There are also
many 'extras' to add to your enjoyment.
The site is subject to on-going
development. If you can assist with the accuracy or details of
this site, or if you want to provide feedback, please use this
email link. If you have a question, why not try the
FAQs first.
