This series of 10 cards was found in a horizontal strip. It uses the same images as the c. 1925 Exhibit Blue Boxers as reused on some rare 4-on-1 cards with boxers and baseball players. The stock is much thinner than Exhibit stock. There are only 3-4 known examples of each card and the one we are offering here contains eight of the ten. For starters we offer Benny Leonard in one of his last career-issued cards in green tone graded A by SGC. To Leonard we add seven more blue tone cards all HOFers: Harry Greb Rocky Kansas Eugene Criqui Georges Carpentier Dave Shade Mickey Walker and Johnny Dundee. Eight virtually impossible boxing cards all in one lot.
