49 playing cards
Gregory Graetz has asked if I know anything about this collection of playing cards. I often see this set listed as being issued in 1975 but Rinus Michels didn't become Barcelona manager until 1976 and I doubt he would have been included in this set while with Ajax. Greg informs me that the cards come in two versions, with the design on the back printed on black or red.
