Printed in Britain by D.C. Thomson and inserted in issues of The Victor, which was a weekly comic paper, this set was printed in sheets of three issues on heavy card stock and was intended to be cut and placed in a sleeve that was distributed in the first issue of the magazine featuring the cards. A total of sixteen cards were printed, meaning a total of 48 individual athletes were depicted. Finding uncut sheets is rare considering most were cut to be placed in the sleeve as intended by the manufacturer. Photos of the comic that this issue was inserted in as well as the sleeve that the individual cards were intended to be stored are included below.
