S.F. Hess Questions
 

Posted By: <b>Scot York</b><p>I purchased this S.F. Hess cigarette card (WM O'Connor) as a boxing card. He appears to have a short sleeve shirt on though. His shirt has an X with a symbol in the middle that I can't make out. There's a large trophy next to him as well. My questions are, does anybody recognize this player or card and what type of sport is it.<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1165041673.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1165041696.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1165042665.JPG">
