Star badges, 1950s and 1960s. On sale outside Ninian Park, small plastic ‘star badges’ were a way many Cardiff City supporters chose to show their allegiance. Most that you find are 'star' shaped, but they came in a wide variety of shapes and the same player can be found in many different poses. There were probably thousands of different badges issued throughout the late 1950s and the 1960s.

No. 6    Cardiff City

These cards were cut from the side of the tea packets. The quality therefore depends a lot on the person who cut them out, since this dictates how much of the packet was included, and how neat the borders will be.
