Famous Footballers (Transfers)
Barratt & Co.
2 sheets, 40 transfers.

I've had an e-mail from Mick Wallace about transfer from the 1940s.

Alan, congratulations on Cardiff City reaching the Premiership, well deserved after the last 3 years of play-off heartbreak.
Recently purchased some football transfer cards and I wondered if you have any info on them. All i have is that they were issued Anonymous, circa 1949.
I went for the Newcastle card of Frank Brennan but also got a Cardiff City one, A.R. Lever, thought you may have it in your collection and may know more detail. Also got a Jackie Milburn Barratt transfer card from 1952. I am a member of the CGSB as well, and will be attending both days of this years convention at Woking.
Regards, Mick
