in my eyes, these and the T220 Silver's are the most aesthetically pleasing boxing cards issued yet. Here's Peerless Jim/Jem

Nice JJ RC, Herb.
I'm not a big Turkey Red collector but they are great looking cards. As long as we're talking cabinets, here are two HOFers in the Pioneer Facial Hair category: Paddy Ryan, 2020 IBHOF, Sarony cabinet Joe Goss, 2003 IBHOF, Wood cabinet

South African issue Vic Toweel Series issued in the early 1950’s by Honey Bee Candy Works Ltd. A subsidiary of Barratt’s Confectionery. The card features the fight between Toweel and Manuel Ortiz.

Here's an amusing one. What happened to Al Kaufman's top? Did the artist get 3/4 through painting his shirt and decided there wasn't enough nipple on this card? Was he portraying Kaufman shirtless, and then realized it would be easier to just color fill in half his body? The E77's were a marked step up in quality from the awfully generic E75/E76 cards, but this one is such a bad card, that I like it.
Kaufman's claim to fame is being one of the contender cans Jack Johnson destroyed during his title reign in a heavily lopsided bout. Johnson doesn't seem to have held much interest in defending his title against strong competition, beating middleweights, light heavyweights, cans, mediocre heavyweights and a retired and a washed up old champ in his title defenses, while Jeanette and Langford were left without a title shot. Kaufman became an actor after calling it quits. |

Nice JJ RC, Herb.
Thanks Adam, Johnson was my first boxing card. Burns gave Johnson an opportunity. |
