1969/70 to 1973/74
Football Supporter & Football Pictorial
The Football Supporter was published from November 1967 until April 1970 (Volume 3, No. 4), at which point it evolved into Football Pictorial. Subsequently, Football Pictorial merged with Football Digest—the final iteration of the renowned Charles Buchan’s Football Monthly—and was rebranded as Football in June 1974.

Super Strikers and Team Sets
For most of their relatively short lives these football magazines produced colour pictures on the back cover, which were to be cut out as individual cards. These have now become quite collectible.
I’m indebted to Guy Mitchell who provided a set of images from which I was able to produce the checklists below, sorted by players, teams and the magazine issues.
