F. & J. Smith (Cup Tie Cigarettes)
120

This set is always referred to as a 1906 issue, but I have my doubts and think it may have been issued as much as five years earlier. Regarding the three cards shown here, New Brighton Tower lasted only five seasons, spending four of them in the Second Division of the Football League, before folding in 1901. Frank Becton's second spell at Deepdale last just one season - 1900-01, whilst Notts Forest's John Calvey left the club in 1903 for Millwall Athletic. Finally, Howard Spence's card makes reference to an England appearance in 1897.
