A&BC - (AAB-020/ABF-1) All Sports


1954
(AAB-020/ABF-1) All Sports
A&BC
120 cards

The cards have blank back. I've included the card of Allan Watkins who played football for Plymouth Argyle and Cardiff City.
UPDATE (26-07-2018 18:41):  I've been reminded by Ken Renno that Denis Compton is another who played football and cricket. It's strange how this fact has been omitted from his card even though the card for his brother does make reference to his dual sporting connections, along with a few others through the set. Both Denis and Lesley played for Arsenal for many years.
