The backs of the cards do this for many of the white fighters and track athletes in t218 frequently include a note on their ethnic backgrounds on the card backs. The ATC does not seem to have treated a race any differently than the others. Klaus is the "German-American fighter", Gardiner and Jack Sullivan among many others are specified as Irish, Driscoll as an Englishman, the track cards are replete with it. In T220, Jackson is specified as "colored", but Dixon and Gans have no ethnic comment.

No disparagement appears to be meant, on the T218's, on the T220's, on Henson's card in T68, especially in the context of a less sensitive period.
