Brooke Bond tea cards were playground currency, with handfuls won and lost in breaktime flicking games. Asian Wild Life cards, the latest in the PG tips series, were very popular. They came free with packets of tea, with many of us buying the album, priced sixpence, at the International Stores or other Brooke Bond outlets.
Still in circulation were older cards from the African Wild Life series.
Older still were boring Freshwater Fish cards.
And boring Wildflower cards.
And sometimes, there’d be the odd card from a packet of sweet cigarettes.
