D.C. Thomson 
Adventure / The Rover / The Skipper / The Wizard 
Football Towns & Their Crests 
1931
32 Cards

Liverpool, Coventry, Greenock, Cardiff  &  The Sirius (1838)   
The Wizard, Issue No. 440,  9 May 1931

The four main comics published by D.C. Thomson gave away similar cards over an eight week period. These cards are usually found cut, so you'll normally find the Famous Towns & Their Crests without the Famous Ship attached. They are much harder to find uncut.

The other Welsh clubs featured in this series are:

Stockport, Inverness, Bangor, Wrexham  &  Lusitania  
Adventure, Issue No. 502, 13 June 1931

Sheffield, Swansea, Cowdenbeath, Bolton  &  The Resolution 
Skipper, Issue No. 36, 9 May 1931

Bradford, Newport, Kirkcaldy, Bournemouth  &  Fram   
The Wizard, Issue No. 442, 23 May 1931
