Tommy Burns is immortalized as a world heavyweight boxer but he was also a pro lacrosse player, as his #42 card from the 1910 Imperial Tobacco C59 lacrosse set attests. This card is a Pop-3, with the PSA EX-MT 6 having none graded higher. Only 12.38% of the 1,066 cards from that set submitted to PSA received PSA 6 grading, in the top 16.6% of all cards submitted from that set. Mr. Burns had 0 goals and 5 PIMs in 1 game with the Vancouver Lacrosse Club the previous 1910 season, and as far as being a legendary boxer goes, he was inducted into the Canadian Boxing Hall of Fame, the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame in 1955, and into the International Boxing Hall of Fame on June 9, 1996.
