World Welterweight Champion from 1908-12 it was weight problems and not defeat in the ring that caused Harry Lewis to give up his title. In a single day in 1910 on one bill Lewis defeated three different opponents. He became a member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2008.His card is a solid VG/EX example with strong edges and but mildly rounded corners being the card"s primary flaw. The bottom left corner has a small crease visible more from the back than the front right at the tip of the corner. The surface appears strong but at close look there are a few very tiny white specks that appear to be paper loss in various spots on the card surface.
