Lyons Trade Cards Index

Nice to see that readers liked the Lyons Tea Cards - Wings of Speed.

I decided to see what other sets Lyons issued and discovered this index:


Looks like the various Lyons Brands outstripped Brooke Bond in its range of cards, including Star Trek and Space 1999.

Maybe other readers have some of those sets?

  1. I never realised Lyons Tea and Lyons Maid were connected! Ive got the All Systems Go! set (I think) and possibly some of the others. My dad was a voracious collector of all sorts of stuff and i have boxes and boxes of odd cards at home now! Bill

  2. a quick google revealed these unusual space cards from Mills on the NYPL Digital Collection, which are clearly Dan Dare influenced, including the Anastasia! https://digitalcollections.nypl.org/collections/cigarette-cards#/?tab=navigation&roots=1122:54511680-c570-012f-d848-58d385a7bc34
