Stars of Sport (Trojan Gen-Cards/W. Shipton Ltd.), 1959
Stars of Sport (Quaker Oats Ltd.)
The "Stars of Sport" cards seem to comprise only five cards of a 75-card set.
It seems that there are several (15?) groups of cards with titles such as "Stars of Sport,"
"Characters from Fiction," and "Undersea Life."
The following are the cards I know of. I assume the numbers and content are the same
for both the Shipton and Quaker Oats sets.
