Trivia |
- There were two printing variations for this set. The difference is only notable on the back of the cards. Cards from the first printing have use a slightly smaller font, and a bolder typeface. Due to the larger font on the second printing, there are differences in how the text lines are laid out.
There is another parallel set that was also produced in 1962 by A.C.W. Francis. These cards are sized slightly larger than their Dickson/Orde cousins, and have a reverse photo orientation. Some have a black or red ACW Francis stamp on the back, while others are blank backed.
