Great article, Adam. At one time I tried collecting cards of the heavyweight champs that held the title during my lifetime (since 1952) but I gave that up. I changed focus to collect either a magazine cover or original wirefoto of each of them, at least through the 80s when my boxing interest died.
I'd be interested to know if you dug up anything on career contemporary cards of Sonny Liston.
