Foxhound dog original Arthur Wardle card. This very pretty single card was made ready by John Players to be issued but the onset of the 2nd World War meant it was not.The images are taken from originals by Arthur Wardle.It has a fair amount of printed text on the reverse relating to the breed.It is a card from the 25 card series entitled "Dogs".It measures 2.5 inches by 3.25 inches approx and is in very good condition.The image and the text are a little clearer than the scan shows them to be.The printed text on the reverse of this card reads as follows....."These hounds are utility dogs purely and simply, and rarely appear in the show ring except at such events as the Peterborough Hound Show, whose appeal is chiefly for hunting people. This is undoubtedly due to the jealous care with which the Foxhound is bred by the various hunts, who guard against letting the breed get into wrong hands. It is thought that the breed goes back to the Talbot Hounds, a relative of the Bloodhound brought over by the Normans, and that English Greyhound and Bulldog blood were introduced a long time ago to increase speed and tenacity. The packs of hounds vary a little in conformation according to the country they hunt. Mountainous districts demand a more lightly-built hound than flat country. The Foxhound Club Stud Books contain the pedigrees of dogs belonging to strains which go back hundreds of years."Please note our policy of FREE Shipping and Insurance worldwide on all orders of $10.00 and above.

From 1750 onwards several Staghound packs were converted for foxhunting, and thus it was in the Staghound that the Foxhound had its origin. The fox is a fast and cunning animal, and in consequence the Foxhound needs to be fleet of foot, possessed of immense stamina and of acute powers of scent. Scientific breeding has combined these qualities in the superb dog we know today, which is considered to be the aristocrat of all breeds."
