Tonight on eBay I picked up a set of six football cards. They are illustrated in caricature, measure 5" tall by 3" wide, and have no maker specifically, only an R inside a triangle and the numbers 873, see above close in.

Does anyone know about these?...Please elaborate on them if you can. These are the first FB cards I've ever bought...The illustrations are great with all the action..and they are definitely American football not rugby or anything Euro (see the quilted pants)...One of the main reasons I got them was they were a set of six all in one buy...I wonder if there are more of the set?

I'm not a card guy but they seem to be trade card sized...but no advertising on the back...I suppose most card collectors will not like the condition of the back having glue from a scrap book...but doesn't bother me
Thanks -Carlton
