Default OT: Vintage Boxing Card Help

Posted By: James Feagin

I recently scored in a trade a card from 1911-12ish. Card depicts a boxer named James Johnson "American Coloured". Back is a Scissors back and in VG-EX/EX condition. I'm pretty sure this is a British issue and have been told it's rare. Few questions:

1.) Is there a catalogue number to this card?
2.) Was James Johnson a good or even a fair boxer? Couldn't find anything on him on the internet.
3.) I know most English cigarette cards aren't valuable. However, does this card have any value? Approximately how much? I normally don't do too many OT posts, but I would love any help on this matter.

James
