I just purchased a large collection and in it were some tobacco style cards of soccer players. They appear to be from the early 1900s era. They are caricatures featuring cartoon like drawings with big heads. The backs say "Issued by John Player & Sons" "Branch of the Imperial Tobacco Co. of Great Britain & Ireland". Does anyone have any info on these? I have 7 different ones all of which are EX-Mt or better. Thanks.

Anyone have any ideas? John Player and Sons has several listsing on eBay for various tobacco cards but none like these. I just want to know the year they were produced so I can list them on eBay as well. All my research is not turning up anything.
