Soccer

Well, it's been a good long while. Here's some soccer rev negs, as promised once.

199() Question of Sport Soccer #NNO Stefan Schwarz

1974 Ediguias Portuguese Munich 74 # Rivelino. Brazil crest is on the wrong side of the shirt.

1978 Acropolos Press Argentina ’78 #62 Archie Gemmill (Portuguese issue). Crest on wrong side, letters in the background reversed.

1982 FKS World Cup Special 1982 #51 Francois Van Der Elst. Notice where his crest is compared to the others.

1982 FKS World Cup Special 1982 #114 Hans-Peter Briegel

1986 Emlyn Hughes Team Tactix Ipswich Town #8 Mark Brennan (fisons)

1986 Vaux Breweries #23 Peter Shilton

1988 Daily Mirror Alf Ramsey’s England 12 #347 Glenn Hoddle

1988-89 Sun Pocket of Soccer #20 Paul Gascoigne

1988-89 Sun Pocket of Soccer #21 Peter Beardsley. Lots of flip-flopped crests in this post.

1988-89 Sun Pocket of Soccer #31 Ruud Gullit

1989-90 Sun-Euroflash Soccer Collection #97 Mark Wright

1989-90 Sun-Euroflash Soccer Collection #302 Robert Connor

1990 Orbis Football Collection #FO85 Richard Shaw. Look at the ad boards in the background.

1990 World Cup Bubble Gum 60 Years of World Cup # Claudio Cannigia (India). Can't imagine how hard it would be find any of these cards...

1990-91 Pro Set #259a and #259b Steven Yates. Unlike most of these, this card acually has a corrected version.

1990-91 Sun Soccer Collection #300 David Robertson. That JVC is pretty obvious.

1990-91 Sun Soccer Collection #369 Neil Cooper

1991-92 Merlin Shooting Stars #141a Ian Brightwell. This one has a corrected version but I don't have the scan for it.

1991-92 Merlin Shooting Stars #162a and #162b Neil Webb. Corrected and error.

1991-92 Merlin Shooting Stars #243a Simon Tracey. This one also has a corrected version. Those letters in the background look pretty odd.

1991-92 Merlin Shooting Stars #244a John Pemberton. Again, this one has a corrected version.

1991-92 Merlin Shooting Stars #396a and #396b Darron McDonough. Error and corrected. Not a lot of quality control in this Merlin set.

1992 Top Trumps Today’s Strikers Middlesbrough #6D Bernie Slaven

1993 Pacific NPSL #2 Jason Dieter (back). You can tell because the white on his jersey is on the opposite side of the other jerseys in this scan.

1996 Match & Sported #25 Tony Yeboah. The Puma is reversed.

1996 Match & Sported #59 Ryan Giggs. Nice, a Giggs.

1996 One Touch Premier Strikers #? Trevor Sinclair

1996 Panini Estrellas Europas #48 Julen Guerrero Lopez

1997 Upper Deck Juventus #13 Antonio Girauldo. I suspect this is an error based on the ad board letters, but don't know for sure.

1997 Upper Deck Seleccion Espanola #32 Emilio Butragueno. This one is just delightful to me. And it's a rare Upper Deck later period error.

1998 Brooke Bond PG Tips International Soccer Stars #10 Bebeto. The Master Card is reversed.


1998 Upper Deck Juventus #16 Giuseppe Meazza. One of the sides is a reverse, though it is impossible to tell which one due to the scarce detail. It's clearly the same picture with him facing opposite sides.

1998 Upper Deck Leggenda Azzurra 15 Luigi Riva. Most likely a rev neg due to the placement of the crests on the shirts.

1998 Upper Deck Rangers #7 Bob McPhail. Look at the letters and numbers on the wall behind his head.


2001 Pro Entertainments #166 Diego Maradona (Argentina issue)
