Lambert and Butler cards

In 1927 Lambert and Butler produced a series of photo cards in glorious, living monochrome, this series featured top sportsmen and possibly women of the era. The set included several top billiard players.

The two that I have are “William” (Willie) Smith and Tom Reece. These cards are a real treat as they are well photographed and carry interesting and informative text on the reverse.

I am unsure about the other Billiard players in the set but would like to know more, should you be able to tell me anything. I would be surprised if Joe Davis was not included in the set as well as perhaps Messrs Newman, Inman and Lindrum.
