Wally Lewis billy tea card

[Datsunbrent]

Hi there

I have a billy tea card with the image of wally Lewis on it, I'm not to sure of the year though. Does anyone know the value of this card? It is very tidy and no crease or damage. I have attached a picture as I'm sure people would like to view it.

Don't know the price, from what I can find out it is part of a 96 card series broken into sub set;

Key Events in Australian History 1-21
Pioneers and Explorers 22-29
Bushrangers 30-38
Uniquely Australian 39-49
Famous Australians 50-58
Prime Ministers 59-73
Sporting Life and Heroes 74-82
Famous Places 83-96

There's a Paul Keating card dated 1991- (no end date) so I would assume printed in1991.

That's the closest I have to identifying the year of issue. The info will defiantly assist in finding its relevant place within my collection.
Appreciate your help.

Aren't the dates on the Prime Ministers cards relating to their years as PM, therefore could have been printed anytime between 1991 and 1995 (Keating didnt finish his stint until 1996)? Keating also didnt become PM until December 1991 and I definitely had this set pre-1994 so my guess is printing date is either 1992 or 1993

I was just going by the fact the other cards in the set had the year they first became PM and the final year they became PM:

70. Gough Whitlam, 1972 - 1975
71. Malcolm Fraser, 1975 - 1983
72. Bob Hawke, 1983 - 1991

But your right Curtis given he became PM in Dec 91 and was in office until 1996 the print date could technically be anywhere between 92-96 ( before March).

Would consider parting with this card for some cards I require on my want lists.

I don't want to but it's only fair I part with some cards to assist with my collection since so many have helped me thus far
