Kiddy's Favourites
52 cards

At least one card is known with the word 'CANCELLED' stamped on the back. It's possible all the cards could be found in this condition. I thought it might be from some sort of redemption programme. The cards can also be found without any reference to the Series or the player on the back, but with the wording 'Buy "Yanky" Bubble Gum IT'S BEST' and these rare cards can be found printed on three different coloured cards. Players names are taken from the front of the cards and the team name is as written on the back of the cards.

This checklist was compiled over many years a long time ago. I can't guarantee that the details on the checklist are exactly as they appear on the cards.

UPDATE (18-05-2017 20:07):  I've amended the listing to read "2, 3 or 4 Black stars" as I've received a scan of the Ronnie Simpson card from Matthew Zubrot that has just two black stars at the top of the card.
