This sort of noir movie lighting was common in the 40s and 50s.

I absolutely love those pics. I've been meaning to pick up a Charles exhibit card. I don't collect them but just love the photo. As Adam mentioned there's sort of a noir quality.
I grew up around Cincinnati not tremendously far from Ezzard Charles Drive. For such a sports city I think Charles' legacy has been kind of brushed aside for whatever reason. I grew up a big Cincy sports fan but only vaguely knew that Charles was some boxer. It's too bad really. The Cincinnati Cobra is definitely one of the greatest athletes affiliated with the region. |

Those look really nice, I could see why you have managed to keep them.

Hi Adam! I have attached back scans. The Jackson is an Aussie issue. Not sure about the Boer War--the cards appear blank backed (Fitzsimmons is trimmed).
