Merseyside Police Italia 1990 World Cup England Collectors Cards.

Description:

MERSEYSIDE POLICE COP A CARD Complete Set in Wallet featuring what was thought to be the England Squad for Italia 1990. As can be seen some of the players thought to be included in the squad ultimately didn't make it to Italy. The cards were given out to young people as a way of breaking the ice with police officers - the initiative went on for several months before the tournament hence the differences with the squad that made it to the finals. Presumably the ability to take penalties was not a criteria for selection - a pity that.
This set is in mint condition and similar items have been sold at auctions (not eBay) for well over £150 each.
