Cigarette Card RAF and Navy
« on: January 23, 2020, 12:09:14 PM »
I've put up a couple of blogposts on the RAF in 1938 and the Royal Navy in 1938 as illustrated within contemporary cigarette cards. Actually, what I've done is merely discover and link to all the work of another non wargaming/non VBCW blogger, "Hatchfive", who has scanned all the cards and re-typed all the commentary on the back of the cards, so thanks due to him. Fascinating for the VBCW fan, colourful and pretty comprehensive:

Cool! I have the RAF one, although it’s missing a card or two. Had never seen the RN one so cheers!
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
