Harvey won the British middleweight, light-heavyweight and heavyweight titles during a career that spanned 22 years. He fought professionally in all 8 original weight classes.

"The Rochdale Thunderbolt" - British middleweight (1933-1939) and light heavyweight champion (1937-1938).
McAvoy was selected as one of the 100 greatest punchers of all-time by Ring Magazine.

According to his obituary, Pendergast "operated a tight training camp on Staten Island" and was a trainer for "John L. Sullivan, Jake Kilrain and other notables of the prize ring."

I like the tagline - "Long Cut Tobacco Has An Unbeaten Record"

Just got this today — super happy to add to my pre-war collection. While Wiltse is not a HOFer, his is an interesting story! This Giants pitcher was nicknamed “Hooks” because of the movement on his curve ball. (His older brother also pitched in the majors — Snake Wiltse!)

Hooks’ 10-inning complete game no-hitter in 1908 still remains a Major League record. Plus, I love that the slab label says “Both Ears Show.”

Give these old cards a look the next time you consider spending $55 (the cost of this 114-year-old slab) on a mega box or on a random prospect card numbered to /99.
