Year: 1992

Set: Brooke Bond Olympic Challenge (Rate)

Card: #12 Mary Rand


“ Olympic cards are always good in my book. 1992 is when my earliest Olympic memories are from, but it wasn't until 1996 that I became a big fan. Have been ever since. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Hmmm....not familiar at all with this set. Front is very plain, of course, but a nice, full photo which captures a moment. I like that very much. The back has a good description of her illustrious olympic career--both the ups and the downs. I'm not a fan of the aspect ratio of the card, but overall I'd say this is a winner. ” -kents_stuff

“ There is something awesome about this card. ” -muskie027

“ Kind of a cool card. Is it mini A&G size. sweet ” -parsley24

“ At first I thought this was a boy with no pants, and I was ready to cancel my site membership. Regardless, this is not a card I would add to my collection. ” -switzr1

“ It has to be the lighting on the original photo, but her entire right side of her body looks like she has an enormous bruise on her arms and legs. ” -rmpaq5

Re: pantless. That's a parallel we don't need for the C2 set.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

I remember collecting these. Used to get a lot of Brooke Bond cards. I guess that has to to with being British so drinking a lot of tea!
