These were in a group of items I purchased. I don't collect cards, but I took everything in the lot. At some point I will try to move them along. The images include Churchman 'Kings of Speed', Phillips 'Sporting Champions', Phillips 'Olympic Champions of 1928', Turf Cigarettes, Park Drive 'Champions', Illingsworth? 'Sporting Events and Stars', Ardath 'Photocards', Kop Aroma and some of the T cards. Included, but not shown are also some of the boxers from the 'Sporting Champions' set; including Carnera, La Barba and Paolini

My current favorite track and fields. There are some panels I don't own, though I don't think a feel sheet can be reconstructed from the find.

Great thread Peter - I got interested in track and field when my son started running for his junior high and high school. I remember Moses being one of the more dominant figures for what seemed like a decade or more. This is one of the only track and field cards i own.

Since you like 'Chariots of Fire' here are some of the official RPPC's issued in 1924. They are by the same photographer but I have not determined why some are full frame and some have the white borders. The card numbering does not help as the photographer also did individual cards for many French athletes including some who competed in 1928 but not 1924.

Picked up William Barry at a local show for $8. This one is cut from the advertising poster, not the album, I think. Couldn't find much on him outside a few NY Times articles from the late 1880's.

Default Track & Field
As a former track & cross country athlete in college, I love this thread. Chariots of Fire is my favorite movie… I used to watch it before most of my races in high school and college as motivation…!

Looking to pick some graded T218’s up… also anyone else have any Chariots of Fire members in cards?

Paddock, Shultz, Liddell, Abraham’s, montague, Burghley, etc?

If anyone is interested in selling those, let me know!

Matt
