[Sc19cards]

After sitting out on the periphery for a few months, I am back full swing into building my boxing collection. I still gravitate towards looking at prewar first, but I have been looking at the early 70s and late 80s Panini Stickers of fighters I loved growing up (just grabbed an '86 Supersport Donald Curry).

This is the latest pickup - a quick and cheap local pickup from 1956 Gum Adventure. Nine cards in total. I have looked around for the Schmeling and while they are abundant on eBay - nobody is giving them away and they are all priced too high. Just given the shock factor of the card itself alone is one reason I'd love to own it, however Schmeling's own story and the friendship he had with Louis until his death makes it a coveted card.
