With each card featuring full color lithographs of two boxers squaring off and demonstrating a different boxing maneuver the 25-card N266 Red Cross set is difficult to complete in any condition. Once considered extremely rare the supply of these cards seems to have increased over the years though are still by no means common. This example with the "Hull Collection" pedigree has been graded VG/EX 50 by SGC due to overall wear. The Red Cross reverse complete with information on the 1887 fight that pitted Jem Carney and Jem Mitchell against one another is clean and bold despite some age-related soiling.
