They're scraps or Victorian scraps, which I consider its own genre. Scraps meaning litho die cuts, and not the misprint trading card rejects.

They were commercially sold and collected (pasted into albums), so they're close to cards and so included in the general trading card category (along with Piedmont Stamps and Tobacco Silks). I agree they're closer to a trading card than a Sweet Caporal pin.

What is a trading card is a neverending debate on this board, and I won't pretend to offer the final, set in stone answer in this post. Just my opinion. I'm sure many consider scraps trading cards, and, at the least, they are darned close.

very cool pieces, good luck with the sale.

to me, they speak rugby.....not American football.

"going for a try" is a rugby phrase, I believe.

I don't know the differences between the early games, but it literally says 'football' on the tab
