Exceptional composite cabinet photo from the Morrison Studio advertising the Haymarket Theatre in Chicago and containing numerous (23 to be exact) photos of James J Corbett some of which are among his best-known images. While the photo is in outstanding condition the piece does have two hole punches along the left edge suggesting perhaps the cabinet was part of a selection for salespeople to order individual larger cabinets. This specimen is indeed the exact specimen featured in the Warshaw book America's Great Boxing Cards.
