Maybe others can chime in and share this as well, so that we can share this knowledge.

Also, since I am trying for a master set of backs for the 3 players I collect, I'd love any information on which backs others find the most rare.

Are you also going for all 4 backs of every player in order to call the set complete?






Here are the best resources I am aware of for this set:

1. Current Checklist: https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogsp...ssball-09.html
2. Back Variations:https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogsp...-fussball.html
3. Detailed Set Info:http://www.csogb.co.uk/Reference/Mul...igFussball.php

By the way, on the csogb.co.uk site link above, there is a matrix with each card being listed as "U, T, Z" but I can't figure out what that designation is referring to. Can anyone help me out on this?

I too am really interested in this set and would love any knowledge that people can share on it. Thanks to everyone for helping us learn more about these classic old sets!!!!

I know for a fact that the checklist on the 3rd site is incomplete. It's missing Ireland, Holland and Portugal in the last section. And as I mentioned, the Austrian players were a later series, after the annexation.

But it does give a better idea how vast the set is and why some cards are more common while others rarer.

The U, T, Z is for the designation of variants - Union, Tutbaco, Zeptor .
