None of the TPGs actually knew what they were, so they made it up. Not a unique thing for them. PSA's Latin American sets are a blizzard of gibberish and made-up names.
And as long as we're at it and I can trot this out again: ![]() ![]() That's my version of a Marciano RC...

Nah, they’re the pro’s. They’d never do that.

Cards 109 and 110 in my T225-1 set. The lack of Jack Johnson makes this one a very affordable set, with a strong checklist of great boxers nobody cares about, as opposed to the T225-2's that have a horrific checklist of terrible boxers nobody cares about.

Found the Canelo's at a show today in a nickel box, so I grabbed all 3. Checking eBay sold items they are $45-$100 cards apparently. Not sure if I'll keep one or not, that's too much value for a base modern card in my eyes.
The T218 Hoppe is a miscut 30 back showing he is below William Heins, a bowler. This is a significant miscut find to identifying series 3 distribution and clarifying some of the comments in the ledger pages that survive - evidently the Billiards Players were not their own series as a couple of the pages imply was possible. I was surprised how much this one ended up going for, thought I'd snag it for little. If someone else is collecting these miscuts please show them for sheet reconstruction research ![]() Another "D" error Trubenbach, since it was a cheapie. And cards 111-120 in my T225-1 master set run. Last edited by G1911; 07-16-2022 at 11:55 PM. |

The Canelo cards have really gone up. I just sent off one of the certified signed RCs for slabbing; that card can go for $2K.
![]() There are a # of modern cards like that lately. I also sent this one for grading, because it can go well into four figures slabbed: ![]() Hopefully, they will be back before a card show I am setting up at in August. https://www.burbankcardshow.com/ Come visit; there will be lots of esoteric boxing cards and memorabilia at my table. Oh, and a modest p/u:

Auto's and tough inserts make sense as being valuable, though I don't know if the explosion will hold. Base commons, this seems excessive. I thought it was like $5-$10 and that's why I didn't have a copy yet.
I've never been to the Burbank show, but this one had a dealer I don't know with actual boxing for the first time I've ever seen. Bunch of Jack Johnsons, a set of Cohen's & Weenen's, Joe Louis stuff, a full display case. All CSG slabbed, not really what I look for but I can probably count on my fingers the boxing cards I've encountered in hand and are not in my collection. Cool to see some boxing amidst the post-war vintage and modern baseball/football/basketball. Came away with tons of junk wax for fun opening, a couple Heritage hobby boxes at $40 a pop, some post-war vintage including a Hornung rookie, an Obak, 2 Zeenuts, and a big box of 60's baseball I need to sort through one evening. Still hoping to find a box of Mecca cards one day.... Nothing as cool as a Sullivan CDV! |

Happy to get this one tonight, commemorating their 1904 bout.
