WOLVES IN DETAIL

1920's - Pinnace Cards

​​​

          The Pinnace cards were first issue in the summer of 1920 and covered all clubs in the three English Divisions and the single Scottish Division. Also included were a number of Rugby players with the first issues having an oval back to them Additions to the series were added for the following three seasons with the eventual number of cards issued being 2462. In the latter years the backs went from oval to a rectangular.
     The cards were approximately 44mm x 35mm in size whilst team photographs at 150mm x 100mm in size were also issued. These are very rare.
     There were 22 Wolves player cards issued plus team group for the 1920-21 season, although there were actually 23 player cards due to the error made on the initial issue for the Jack Price as it initially listed him as B Price.
     I have collected 20 cards at present with those still needed being 107 - S Fazackerlay,  1902 - G Getgood and the 1920-21 team group.
