2. 1964 Nestle Los Juegos Olimpicos Joe Frazier - predates his Panini by 3 years
3. 1977-79 Sportscaster Larry Holmes card (Finnish version much more rare and the one to own).-I dont like Sportscasters but they are a legitimate issue and it is 3-5 years before his Panini (and you already used the Sportscaster series for someone else on the list, so you can't start ignoring it now).
There are also at least 2 Swedish Rekord Magazine cards (2 Different 1956 Floyd Pattersons and a 1962 Sonny Liston) that predate the cards you mention on the list. If you are going to count the Hemmets Journal Clay then you have to count these as well.

Hi all - greetings, and apologies for the (too long) delay! The list is still a bit of a work in progress, but just a note to say that I agree with all of the three edits mentioned above, and will be correcting the 'master list' accordingly. Regarding the Rekord magazines, unlike the Clay they were not numbered, were not issued as cards, and are not part of a set, so the general consensus thus far as been to exclude those. Again, a hearty thanks to those who have come with suggestions and comments so far. it's been a ton of fun.
And on the personal note, my current WTB list from these cards is below. Anyone have anything available? PSA / SGC / raw all fine.
