Although the details on the backs of these 'Blue Back' cards had to be tilted into 'landscape' mode in order to read them, they are still my favourite set from A&BC.
The set was made up of 2 different series.
Series 1 consisted of card numbers 1 to 131 and series 2 consisted of card numbers 132 to 263.
