In Argentina, the manufacturer is of little concern to the collectors. While it's certainly a popular hobby with strong roots dating back to the 19th century, it hasn't become the major business that it has here in the States. There's no third party grading and very little branding on the vintage products. I've yet to see a card from a set that had the manufacturer printed on the reverse (unless an exception is slipping my mind). Most albums don't have manufacturer branding on them either.
To the best of my knowledge, there was a bit of expansion in the hobby in the 1970s and there were frequently multiple issues each year that would cover futbol or sports. This particular card is from a multi-subject set issued in 1979. I know the set name but not the manufacturer and have seen albums and other cards from the set.
If that all comes across as cagey, that's because I'm being cagey.
