The Premier League is coming back and lots of people are going to need an introduction to the teams.

Good thing we have these cigarette cards from the 1930s.

Tottenham: A team of a half-cockerels, half-men ready to raise your hopes then dash them in the devastating ways.
Here's Arsenal, cannon at the ready, shoes shined, grim smile that says "er, what?".
Aston Villa. Incredible mustache, dashing cape, diabolical plan in place to cancel relegation by stealing all of balls in the Premier League.
Newcastle. Posh bird whose call sounds like "big club, big club" if you listen hard enough.
Chelsea. It's unclear if that's a puddle of urine behind this pensioner carrying two walking sticks. I'll leave it to you to decide.
Leicester, also know as the Foxes, which is why this illustration shows a fox wearing the attire of someone who...hunts foxes.
Everton. I'm sad this isn't just a candy with arms and legs.
