Anyone else collect other sports cards?

Does anyone else here collect other sports cards?

Last year I started picking up soccer/futbol/football cards, most of them are cigarette or tea cards from the UK. The card below would probably be the T206 of football cards...I'm not sure why it's only graded a 60, but SGC has been very nice about grading all these cards I find.

I will post a few of the e107's of the soccer card world I just received back from SGC not too long ago.

That card is awesome. I probably follow the EPL more than any other league nowadays and have been wanting to jump into vintage football, but don't really know much about the cards. As it is, I still collect a bit of vintage hockey, but nothing like I used to.

Sean, that is a really nice looking card!

While I don't have the large FB card collection I once had, I do have some boxing cards - mostly Abe Attell's (since he is linked with the Black Sox). Probably my favorite card, other than Vintage Baseball, is my 1951 Topps Ringside Marciano Rookie.

Is that an American Football player or a European football player? I see the tobacco company says London. Did they have American Football over there at hat time?

I used to have nice little collection of foreign sports cards in the 80s. Canadah doesn't count, You guys merely a territory of the US The best card was probably a card I had of Oscar Schmidt with Italian League team. I still have that card.

This one is my favorite. It was issued in Germany for the 1936 Olympics

I collected hockey extensively as a young kid through my teen years (pre and postwar) and have dabbled in boxing, lacrosse, and various non-sports cards as well. Here are a few.

1911 Scissors Boxing (have approx 3/4 of the set):


I know you said 'sports cards' in your thread title, but these non sports cards are nice looking too.

1911 T68 Heroes of History - my favorite non-sports set (have 15 cards or so):


1930's Fleer "Cops and Robbers Gum" (my only example):
