Some cards show scene from the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, so 1927 is too early. They cover a variety of sports and it's possible that they were issued by a wide variety of firms in many countries. There are plenty of gaps so if you have any information please get in touch. The Babe Ruth card from the El Salvador issue recently sold for nearly $1,600 on eBay. I've labelled these cards as '1st Series' as there is a second series that contains 100 cards. I haven't yet found any football cards in the second series. If I do, I'll include details here at a later date.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1-13.  Athletics</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">14-66.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">67.  Argentina v Uruguay 1:2 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">68.  Argentina v Uruguay 1:2 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">69.  Team Photo (Argentina v Uruguay) (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">70.  Argentina v Uruguay 1:2 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">71.  Argentina v Uruguay 1:2 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">72.  Team Photo (Italy v Egypt) (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">73.   </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">74.  Italy v Spain 1-1,7-1 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">75.  Spain v Italy 1:1 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">76.  Team Photo (Spain v Mexico) (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">77.  Italy v Egypt 11-3 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">78.   </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">79.  Italy v Egypt 11-3 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">80.  Team Photo (Egypt v Argentina) 3:11 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">81.   </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">82.  Team Photo (Mexico v Spain) (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">83.   </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">84.   </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">85.  Uruguay v Germany 4:1 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">86.  Team Photo (Chile v Portugal) 2:4 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">87.   </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">88.  Team Photo (France v Italy) (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">89.  Italy v France 4-1 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">90.  France v Italy 4:3 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">91.  Uruguay v Italy 3:2 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">92.  Argentina v Belgica 6:3 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">93.  Argentina v Belgica 6:3 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">94.  Argentina v USA 11:2 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">95.  Uruguay v Hungary 2:0 (1928 Olympic Games)</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">96-120.  Baseball</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">121-161.  Boxing</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">162-163.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">164-166.  Wrestling</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">167-173.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">174-175.  Swimming</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">176-186.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">187-188.  Tennis</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">189-190.  Rowing</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">191.  Yatching</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">192.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">193.  Cycling</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">194-195.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">196.  Hockey</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">197-199.  ?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">200.  Graf Zeppelin World Tour 1929</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
