The 1st football
cards from the 1880s,
first packets from the 1890s, first stickers from 1914 - all
were British
inventions! Later in 2019,
a new website will open with 1000s of
cards for sale by the
expert, as seen on TV, in "Stuck On You" (ITV 2017/18).
5 years in the making, it's
a bedtime or fireside book as much as a catalogue.

NOTE: the above STOKE
card by Sharpe's was issued c.1878-1883.
Neither this card, nor the
oval card of Bolton Wanderers, as shown on TV, on
"Stuck On You" were
the very first cards - no matter what TV says - but they
they
were
close to first!
Soccer cards were first made
in the 1870's, in England.
Soccer stickers were first made in 1914, in Scotland! And, no matter
what
TV
tells you, Italians did not invent the packet of soccer cards in
1960. It's a lie.
It was yet another British invention, patented by John Baines 70 years
earlier.
