The great Jack Dempsey appears three times in this intriguing encapsulated boxing offering, with a 1920 W529 strip card the oldest, the hand cut relic slabbed "Authentic" by PSA. Dempsey's inclusion in Ogden's 1928 Pugilists in Action set of 50 cigarette cards is graded VG-EX+ 4.5 by PSA, while in a Beckett BVG holder and graded "3 VERY GOOD" is a 1948 Topps Magic Photos card #8A. Chronologically among the rest is a 1928 W513 strip card of Jack Delaney that earned alluring EX-MT 6 status at PSA, followed by a swell real photo of Gene Tunney from Godfrey Phillips' Sporting Champions issue. It garnered a mark of NM 7 at PSA. Also offering a superb image is a PSA EX 5 example of Joe Louis from J.A. Pattreiouex's 1935 Sporting Events & Stars set. Two other cards are SGC-graded; 1951 Topps Ringside #3-Jake La Motta (60 EX 5) and 1987 Question of Sport (UK) Mike Tyson (88 NM/MT 8). All that's left to be said is "put'em up - the fight is on!"
