A complete set of the 1939 players cards including no45 with the Addiscombe guys on it!

E.V.Mills and W.G.Paul who held most of the british and world records in 1939!!!

Anyone got any more info on these guys?

The Open 25 has the EV Mills trophy for the winner and you can read a little bit about him that John Watts did for me for the start sheet at the link below - click on Who was EV Mills in the sidebar.

I have the same set, which I found at an antiques fair some time before I joined the Addiscombe.

I hope you paid more than £19 for yours though, because otherwise I've been done!
