Just one card came to mind when I read your post and that is the Ronnie Barker auto card in one of the Avengers sets.

Here is a greatly missed British comedy ICON. and was the 1st card I strove to get wnen that set was released.

I am serously down-grading my collection and most of my cards will go. just focussing on the Star Trek sets, but the Ronnie Barker I will never part with.


The Ronnie Barker auto is definitely underrated as is the Eric Sykes one from Harry Potter Memorable Moments.
A mainstay of British comedy when I was growing up.


Totally agree with these.

I would add Richard Briers, Rodney Bewes and Peter Purves from the various Strictly Ink Dr Who sets. These cards would probably not be much desired by those who didn't grow up in the 70's/80's in the UK however they actually have a greater relevance to me outside of their Dr Who connection. I'd not part with any of them.

I can't believe I forgot Richard Briers. Shake Head I was just watching an episode of The Good Life yesterday.

Yes. It's a really neat set. I managed to pick up the UK set several months ago. It was significantly cheaper than the US set and the cards are essentially the same with a few new ones added in.
