Graham Bruton has kindly sent in photos of a Manchester United card from this collection, along with the "Battocks Painting & Crayoning Competition" back. I presume it is also available in a coloured version.
UPDATE (14-11-2021 16:21):  I have decided to do some housekeeping regarding these rare Battock cards. I am assuming that the coloured cards can also be found as uncoloured cards in the painting competition as the basic designs for the coloured cards and the uncoloured cards are the same. These cards were used for a painting competition and are rarer than the coloured version that can be seen here - J.C. Battock - (BEV-1-2/BAT-200) Football Cards - Coloured/Uncoloured backgrounds (01) - Coloured. Any images I find of the uncoloured cards will be added here.

  1. I was going to mention that they were even diving in the 20's, but that would be unkind, no? :oD
