Wigan Warriors Cards

Does anyone know any info about these cards? Wondering mainly if they are a club release or a home made bootleg. Given Johns only played one year at Wigan my guess is they are from 2001. They arent as wide as a standard card and are also taller. I have these two and Brian Carney which has been signed but unfortunately its a pretty terrible sig.

I'd say they aren't bootlegs or a club release, look more like a Community Safety promotion done in conjunction with the club

Remind me of West Australian Football League cards that were put out in the early 2000s, that promoted the Office of Road Safety's "Belt Up" campaign. They too weren't a regular size, more like a 2/3 undersize card.

Well they are officially endorsed by the Wigan club, I'd say.

I have two Matthew Johns from the set, one signed, one unsigned.
