1920s Unknown Set???
 
2 Attachment(s)
Does anyone know anything about this set? I know there are over 50 different and pretty sure they are from the mid to late 1920s. The approximately measure a large 10" x 10." I was pretty happy to pick up two of the Stanley Ketchel examples.

An interesting characteristic is that there is a printer's union stamp on the upper right-hand corner of many of these.

Thanks!

It is in my book. The issue of large format cards [about a foot square] of at least 50 fights was issued in 1928 by boxing promoter Al Young for the National Hall, a San Francisco venue. Here is a full size example:

Buy Adam's book. It will pay for itself 500x over.
