Comptons Gravy Salt
22 cards in each set
Roger Pashby posed a question - What do you know about the Compton’s Gravy Salts football sets?
Well here goes... Interesting cards that were issued over a few seasons in the mid-1920's. Many cards have creases as they were packed into tins of gravy salt. Some sets have plain backs some have printed backs.
The illustrations above shows examples of cards from all the known series.
The first row features the fronts of the coloured cards from Series A, B and C, and one back. These cards are acknowledge to have been issued during the 1924-25 season.
The second row shows the front and back of one coloured card from Series D, which was issued the following season.
The third row illustrates the front and back of one card from the black and white Series A.
The fourth row shows one front and one back design from the plain back version and the printed back version of the black and white Series B set.
I hope I've explained that satisfactorily.
