in 1935 ogdens produced a new series of club captains. this included portraits of daniel blair, jack bruton, sam cowan, dai richards, dixie dean, tom cooper and william tremelling. a set of these cards are currently valued by the cigarette card catalogue (2007) at £110 .
the first british company to issue cigarette cards was w. d. & h. o. wills. the first card appeared in 1887 and were at first used to advertise its products. ogdens, a company based in liverpool, introduced the first series of cigarette cards in 1894. this series of photographic cards became known as
guinea golds
.
major companies had their own studios devoted entirely to the production of cigarette cards in the 1930s. the trade was given a further boast by the decision of the london cigarette card company in 1933 to establish a magazine for collectors, cigarette card news. a series of caricatures by
mac
( douglas machin) were published by ogdens in 1935. a set of these cards are currently valued by the cigarette card catalogue (2007) at £130. the series included dai richards, alex stevenson, dai richards, charlie phillips, david martin, albert geldard, henry hibbs, bob gurney, george male, ray westwood, jackie bray, eric brook, cliff britton, wilf copping, and eddie hapgood .
golf club history books cover some of the most famous golf clubs, worldwide, from the early days and beginnings of the sport to today. included are also rare and unusual golf books and publications about clubs, such as the 1895 publication ,
banff golf club bazaar
. this rare booklet was published to commemorate the bazaar held to raise funds for the new club - house and course alterations .
many stories exist about the club. for instance there was the time that the artisans were reprimanded by the club for using parts of their own shack as fire wood just to keep warm. as you would expect of a club so steeped in history it has had some wonderful visitors. six open champions, vardon, braid, taylor, herd, white and havers have pitted their wits against this deceptively difficult golf course .
“ alex james was a great footballer and a great club man. he did as much as anybody to make arsenal what they have become” .
there are many other, old and rare golf books in this section about golf club history, such as the 1912,' dalbeattie: the book of the dalbeattie golf club' along with items of golf memorabilia with very personal stories of golf history. a copy of' pine valley golf club: a chronicle' is actually sir peter allen' s copy, signed and dedicated to him by the author, warner shelley. pine valley golf club is the course, where sir peter played his first game in 1933. there are some golfing gems in this section with fascinating histories to tell .
this season we’ve been asked to write a regular page in the official arsenal magazine based on a historical object related to the club. magazine and programme editor
further north another course was mapped out by the masters of epsom college, which adjoins the club, and began its life as the royal medical benevolent college in 1851 .
the collecting of football cigarette cards was extremely popular in the 1920s. in 1925 lacey' s produced a series of 50 black and white photographs. the series included charlie buchan, jack leslie, harry bedford and vic watson .
in 1906 ogdens produced an attractive set of football club colours. these cards showed the club' s star player in his full kit. this was one of the first sets of cards in full colour. the set featured everton, aston villa, wolverhampton wanders, newcastle united, blackburn rovers, middlesbrough, tottenham hotspur, sheffield united and arsenal .
the outbreak of the second world war caused a severe shortage of paper and tobacco companies were forced to bring an end to the production of cigarette cards. this shortage remained after the war and it was too expensive to provide free cards in packets of cigarettes. in 1947 carreras printed pictures of on the sliding part of the cigarette carton for collectors to cut out. the following year they issued a set of 50 footballers. these cards are currently valued at £4 each .
we aim to promote the appreciation and enjoyment of cigarette packet artwork & design as it has reflected social history through the decades. we are also interested in associated items such as tobacco labels, tins, counter display items, proofs and packaging .
the fact that epsom golf club was officially formed following a burn’s night celebration nods to some cultural influences in its formation. in fact, the course began as two separate rudimentary golf courses .
arnold bennett once remarked that
some boys will grow up with cigarette cards as their sole education
. another writer, clifford hough, pointed out that cigarette cards were dubbed
the working man' s encyclopedia
because
they brought pictures of famous faces and fascinating places to the attention
of the masses. hough adds that on
the reverse side the captions contained many interesting facts and pieces of information that often sunk into a boy' s mind to a greater extent than any dull textbook from schooldays .
it is known that well before the formation of the club, dr laidlaw purves of the royal wimbledon golf club and mr richardson of sutton ‘knocked a ball about’ upon the downs. a mr t. w. lang lived close by and made the most of the rough and ready natural greens between the racing grandstand and the rifle butts playing with other ‘wimbledonians’. the number of other local notaries joining them rapidly grew .
to begin with the clubhouse as such was a room next to the hussar (which exists to this day as a corner shop). very soon the club moved to a bungalow owned by founding member john nightingall .
for lovers of golf and its history epsom is a club to visit and to enjoy for the traditional downland challenge it offers and to soak up the atmosphere of bygone days in the clubhouse. we look forward to welcoming you .
published
football club colours
. the following year saw the publication of
footballers portraits
. in 1914 it published a series that was very different from what had previously appeared. these were coloured action pictures with individual portraits as insets .

as gordon howsden points out in his book, collecting cigarette and trade cards :
at a time when the average family could not afford books, and with the technique of reproducing photographs in newspapers still some years away, these cards could inform and amuse, and bring a little bit of colour into what were all too often very drab lives .
the following year, cohen weenen published a similar series entitled football club captains. this included captains in division 1, division 2 and the southern league. these are valued at £13 each card. however, the reprinted set (1998) can be purchased for around £10 .
the clubhouse, albeit with a number of improvements and extensions, remains as an architectural icon to this day. typical of the recreational trends of ‘gentlemen’ in the edwardian period, an extension was built to house the snooker table. to enter the snooker auditorium, for that is what it is, is to take a step back in time. the victorian snooker table, the wooden panels that adorn the room, the ancient scoreboard, the pictures of the club captains representing more than a century all conspire to create an ambience which exudes history. only the billows of cigar and cigarette smoke, that would surely have immersed the room in the early days, are missing now .
the tobacco companies discovered that these sporting cards were a great way to obtain brand loyalty. in 1896 the first football set appeared. footballers & club colours was published by marcus & company, a small firm in manchester. these cards are extremely rare and individual cards are valued at £170. this is true of all the early football sets that were issued at this time: footballers & club colours (kinner, 1898); footballers (j. f. bell, 1902); footballers (f. j. smith, 1902) and footballers (percy e. cadle, 1904). the cost of individual cards of these sets vary from £40 to £160 .
these include the older blends such as wall (formerly wallflower), rows (formerly rose) of sharrow, jockey club, crumbs of comfort, ani & euc (formerley aniseed and eucalyptus), s. p. , s. s. , tom buck, sharrow medicated, irish high toast and queen' s extra strong .
in october 1928 john player and sons produced a series of 50 illustrated action cards. this was followed by another 25 in february, 1929. the first series included david jack, sam cowan, tom mcdonald and stanley earle. the cards were only available for a limited period and so collectors would often find themselves with only a part set. they therefore needed a source from which to obtain the missing numbers. in 1927 the london cigarette card company was formed to acquire, store and sell individual cards or complete sets .
the story goes that when harry vardon put on an exhibition match the club collection was short for his fee and the hat had to be sent round a second time. in the year he won the open, sandy herd took 10 strokes on the 18th – a signature hole and one which has changed little since that time. sandy’s ball lodged in the hedge which straddled the 18th hole – which is perhaps why today a gap exists for the ball to travel through .
the job brand of papers possess some claim to prominence. in 1838, the company commissioned paul harvey to paint pictures featuring the brand, in a manner reminiscent of the popular art nouveau style of alphonse mucha. popularity of the rolling papers in general saw an increase around the year 1883, when cigarette rolling machines were invented — another innovation from the lacroix family. their basic design is still in use in rolling machines today. shortly thereafter, the zig - zag brand of rolling papers introduced what is now a very popular method of packaging rolling papers — the
interleaving
method, by which each paper in a packet is folded so as to link it to the next paper .
the earliest company producing rolling papers was pay - pay, formed in spain in 1703. the known history of cigarette rolling papers can be said to begin with alexandro rizlette de cramptone lacroix, progenitor of the lacroix family which was eventually to create and, for centuries, control the rizla + rolling papers company. the story goes that the frenchman lacroix, in the year 1532, traded a bottle of champagne for rolling papers that french soldiers were carrying back with them from spain. he then copied that paper (just like the french do to this very day). rolling papers were invented in spain, not france. the french didn’t trade tobacco with the new world until a lifetime after the spanish already were .
towards the end of 1888 encouraged by mr mackey residents started to take up the game paying a small subscription to pay for the rolling and sweeping of the first proper greens. a preliminary meeting was held at bromley hurst in church road, the home of mr g. f. burgess on 25 january 1889, which happens to be burn’s night, and perhaps nods to the influence of the founding scottish members. it was resolved that a club be formed with an annual subscription of 10 shillings and 6 pence. the lord of the manor, mr j. s. strange granted permission and mr alexander patrick of wimbledon was employed to lay out a course roughly combining the master’s course and the one which had become known as ‘lang’s’ course .

in common with most brands of the time kensitas were available in 10s and 20s in card packets. larger amounts of 50s and 100s were available in tins .
like the silks themselves the packets and tins can be found with different printings. the normal advertising slogan for the period was: -
some packets do not have the' i' dotted in kens i tas. some do not have a full stop after kensitas .
the study of these packets, tins & slogans is another story and only a brief introduction has been given .
appearing on all of the containers and advertising literature of the time is the kensitas butler - jenkyn. he is always portrayed presenting the cigarettes on a tray and he continued to be used by kensitas in their advertising until the late 1950s .
kensitas were keen to point out that' their cigarettes were made by the kensitas private process which includes the use of the ultra violet rays'. who knows what this was meant to imply ?

in 1871 the american company of allen and ginter began inserting pieces of card to protect the cigarettes from being damaged. it was not long before tobacco companies had the idea of printing advertisements on these cards, or
stiffeners
as they were called in the trade. in about 1876 companies began producing a series of cards that the smoker could collect. it was believed that this would encourage the smoker to continue using that particular brand .
in 1896 the first set with a sporting theme appeared. this was a series by w. d. & h. o. wills of 50 cricketers .
in 1902 w. d. & h. o. wills published a set of 66 football cards. this included george clawley (tottenham hotspur), matt kingsley (newcastle united), george hedley (sheffield united), jimmy crabtree (aston villa), ernest needham (sheffield united) and fred spiksley (sheffield wednesday). interestingly, most of the players were photographed in suits .
in 1905 singleton & cole of shrewsbury published a black and white series of photographs called
footballers
. these now sell for £120 a card but the series was reprinted in 2001 and can now be obtained for a reasonable price from dealers. the series included billy meredith, john doig, william balmer and fred blackburn .
one of the most prolific producers of football cards was taddy & company. in 1907 the company issued a set of 595 cards entitled
prominent footballers
. the oval shaped images were in black and white. further sets were followed in 1908 (403) and 1913 (406) .
pinnace, a company based at 112, commercial st, produced cards for godfrey phillips. in 1920 the company issued a series of 1, 100 football cards. this was followed by 2, 462 in 1922 and 940 in 1923 .
after a period of black and white cards, ogdens returned to using full colour for their
captains of association football clubs and colours
set in 1926. the series includes paintings of donald mckinlay (liverpool), henry healless (blackburn rovers), charlie parker (sunderland), frank barson (manchester united), william caddick (wolves), frank moss (aston villa), fred reed (west bromwich albion), clem stephenson (huddersfield town), thomas hamilton (preston north end) and george kay (west ham united). they are currently valued at £3. 00 a card and £130 a set .
they were followed by gallaher who produced a set of 50 famous footballers later this year. these cards were produced in large numbers and individual cards can be obtained from dealers for around £2. 20 .
a series of caricatures by
rip
( r. p. hill) were published by john player and sons in august, 1926. another series, this time illustrated by
mac
( douglas machin) appeared in september, 1927 and featured players like jimmy ruffell and dixie dean. sets of these can be obtained from dealers for around £65 .
in 1928 gallaher published footballers in action. these were painted scenes from football matches. these cards are in short supply and sets cost in the region of £130 .
in september, 1934, john player and sons produced a series entitled hints on association football. it included advice on defensive and attacking throw - ins, back passes, free kicks, triangular wing movement, bringing the ball down, heading, passing, corner - kicks, trapping the ball, etc .
in the 1930s several companies produced painted portraits of football players. in 1931 lambert & butler, produced a series of painted portraits that included west ham' s star centre - forward, vic watson. this was followed by carreras in 1934 who produced a series entitled
famous footballers
. the set included thomas hetherington, jack bruton, dixie dean, robert kelly, ted critchley, ernie hine, jock mcdougall and jim barrett. original sets can be obtained for about £70 but a reprinted set in 1997 can be purchased for about £13. 50 .
football cards continued to be popular and it was not uncommon for print - runs in the millions. to encourage the collecting of a particular series, the tobacco companies produced special albums that could be purchased from local tobacconists. the most impressive cards produced during the 1930s included painted portraits of football stars. these looked so realistic that they appeared to be painted photographs. the first company to use this technique was ardath. its 1934 series was entitled famous footballers and included portraits of raich carter, jimmy mcgrory, ray westwood, hughie gallacher, jimmy hampson, robert kelly, eric brook, sammy crooks, stanley matthews, cliff bastin, eddie hapgood, sam cowan, billy barraclough, james allen, jack bruton, alex james, gordon hodgson and reg hollingsworth .
carreras also published a set of 48 cards entitled popular footballers in 1936. these painted portraits included jimmy hampson, william mckay, bryn jones, billy wrigglesworth, ted hancock, percy grosvenor, john thompson and arnold whiteside. the scale of collecting cards is shown by the fact that in 1936 w. d. & h. o. wills printed 600 million cards for their series on railway engines .
w. d. & h. o. wills produced a series of these cards called association footballers in 1935 that contained impressive portraits of eric brook, stanley matthews, raich carter, reg hollingsworth, eddie hapgood, ted drake, jimmy connor, bob pryde, willie hall, ray westwood, jimmy hampson, john morton and george mutch. thousands of these sets were collected and as a result they can be obtained from dealers for around £60. however, they can be purchased via ebay for about half this price .
association footballers, w. d. & h. o. wills (1935 )
godfrey phillips was also active in this market and produced some very attractive sets in the 1930s. soccer stars in 1936 included ted drake, charlie phillips, alf young, bob gurney, jimmy connor, hughie gallacher, cliff bastin, ray westwood, raich carter, sammy crooks, george camsell, james marshall, dixie dean and wally boyes. famous footballers also appeared in 1936 and the following year saw the publication of international caps .
in 1938 churchman moved away from colour portraits by producing a set of action shots in black and white. the first series featured stan cullis, peter doherty, ted drake, harry goslin, stanley matthews, frank o' donnell, george mutch, tommy lawton, vic woodley, george roughton, bob iverson, len goulden and john morton .
churchman produced a second series in 1939. this series included stan foxall, willie fagan, beaumont asquith, stanley matthews, frank broome, vic woodley, tommy lawton, stan cullis and raich carter. the first series can be obtained for only £35. however, the second series was not produced in such large numbers and you will probably have to pay twice as much for that set .
in 1939 w. d. & h. o. wills produced another series of association footballers. the set included impressive portraits of peter doherty, bert sproston, ray westwood, bob pryde, james allen, andrew beattie, edwin bowden, bryn jones, george vose, tom galley, tommy lawton, raich carter, fred worrall, ephraim dodds, frank broome, len goulden and stan cullis .

the first wilson to come to sharrow mills was thomas, a shearsmith, who rented the water wheel and buildings from the duke of norfolk in 1737. he was an important figure in sheffield industry, having been master of the famous cutlers' company in 1731 .
thomas was followed by his son joseph, a highly successful international merchant and entrepreneur, who was associated with boulsover during the manufacture of the first sheffield plate. joseph carried on this silver - plating and various other manufactures such as saw - making at sharrow mills, as well as at a number of other places in sheffield .
his main interest, though, was in snuff making. at some point, he had come in to possession of the secrets of the trade, and he was able to expand from this into his other ventures .
by the 1760' s, joseph decided to continue the snuff business entirely by himself. it had become the most important part of his activities at sharrow mills - and it was at this time that he started making sp, for which sharrow has been famous for ever since .
in 1763, a fire at the mills destroyed thousands of pounds worth of his stock - in - trade, which included' tobacco snuff'. the business was considered so vital to tax revenues that a national collection was ordered to recompense joseph and his partner (insurance was by no means universal in industry at that time) .
a further six generations of the wilson family have followed thomas at sharrow mills and the business - which is now known as wilsons & co. (sharrow) ltd. - is still wholly owned and run by members of the wilson family .
steam power was introduced in 1797 and the capacity of the mills has been gradually increased over the years. despite this, the original water wheel - which derives its power from the little river porter - is still working .
sharrow snuffs were originally sent out in barrels, boxes and bladders. today, a wide range of packaging is used, with the most popular being 5, 10 and 25gr. tins (approximate weights) .
in terms of variations, snuff is now made in a number of flavours, although the range has recently been reduced .
in addition, newer snuff flavours have been introduced such as dynamite, super cool (formerly super menthol), sm 500 and bee cool (formerly honey menthol) .
the wilsons name is recognised for outstanding quality. from our base in sheffield, we continue to produce many of the world’s most renowned snuffs .

thierry henry, dennis bergkamp and alex james: these three names always crop up when discussing the best attacking player in arsenal’s history, but the outstanding player from the 1930s is our subject here .
alex james was a mercurial talent who joined arsenal, just following cliff bastin, in early june 1929 for £8, 750 after negotiations with herbert chapman in glasgow which included an additional job at selfridges to get around the footballer’s maximum wage. he made his debut in the opening game of the 1929 - 30 season on 31 august 1929 versus leeds united .
james was a key figure in all the 1930s trophy winning arsenal sides except the final league title win as, by that time, he had retired from playing. consequently he won four championship medals in 1930 - 31, 1932 - 33, 1933 - 34 & 1934 - 35, and two fa cup winners’ medals in 1930 and 1936 .
he was arsenal captain from 1932 to 1937, and in all played 261 matches scoring 27 goals for the gunners. george allison who took over as manager from chapman said of james :
“he was, without doubt, the greatest natural born player i have ever seen” .
after he retired he was invited to poland on more than one occasion and in the summer of 1939 took the role up to coach the elite players and coaches of their game in preparation for the scheduled 1940 olympics. he had been earmarked to take their team to those games and it was seen as the beginning of a fruitful coaching relationship .
arriving on 6 june 1939 he was greeted at warsaw airport by members of the polish fa who had arranged for loudspeakers to blare out “the lambeth walk” in his honour. he was boarded at an apartment in the academy of physical training just outside warsaw and began a schedule of three two week training sessions. he also lectured in the evening and had a column in the ‘sporting press of poland’ paper where he could expound his views and were full of copious photos of him .
while there he played in a couple of games and, owing to his lack of match fitness, suffered afterwards saying he felt as though he had “been run through a mangle. ” he was very impressed with his charges’ ball skills and ability to juggle, but not so much with their tactical nous, strength or stamina – so he worked on these elements .
“i was sorry to leave for i made some good friends, and i felt i had been reasonably successful in doing my bit for polish football. ”
it was inscribed to help alex remember his polish friends and dated 28 july 1939 .
he left the country on 11 august 1939, having to leave earlier than anticipated as the geo - political situation deteriorated. the polish fa wanted him to return on a regular basis but events were to stop this from ever happening .
two weeks after he left the country poland beat hungary 4 - 2 in, in a friendly showing strength and stamina and bit of nous in coming back from 2 - 1 down. a few days later germany invaded poland leading to the second world war .
james was called up into the royal artillery in an anti - aircraft unit in 1942, and later that year was hospitalised at windsor after suffering from a fractured rib at a gun site in south england. he spent the rest of the war as gunner james in the ra maritime division. such was his fame and popularity in the country that his name was the password in a naval exercise in 1943 .
after the war he was brought back into the arsenal regime, as a coach to the juniors in 1949, by manager tom whittaker. whittaker, the gunner’s trainer and physio during the 1930s, had witnessed alex james’ genius on the pitch as arsenal dominated the english game. he was in no doubt as to james’ role in this ascendancy :

arthur jackson was appointed the first professional, soon to be replaced by willie dunn, who went on to great success in america .
the fact that by 1893 the first purpose built clubhouse in surrey was built, funded by the members, indicates that they must have been people of some substance. j hatchard - smith, a celebrated london architect, already engaged by lord rosebery on his estate, was the designer. he was paid just one guinea for the privilege. that the founders were men of some means is further borne out by the fact that a founding vice president was the earl of rosebery, later to become prime minister of britain, and another vice president was sir allen sarle, secretary of the london, brighton and south coast railway .

in 1660, the lacroix family began producing the papers; in 1736 they obtained a mill and founded the lacroix rolling paper company. their first big contract was with none other than napoleon, who granted them a license to produce the papers—his soldiers had been using pages from books to roll their cigarettes. in 1865, the company changed the formula for the papers to include rice paper, and the name became
rizla +
— riz is the french word for rice (the main component of the papers), and la + can be expanded to mean
lacroix ,
