Nice Sullivan!

If that Carpentier movie card doesn't float your boat, how about a couple of Rafts?

1936 Facchino's "Cinema Stars" (L) and 1934 Carrera's "Film Stars" ("Fine Quality Cigarettes" version) (R)

Finally, here's a nice addition to the wrestling card collection...

c1950 Ace Lavando, Yo Descansando #54 Cabo Verde

My first example of an individual wrestler from this set. For reference, the individual wrestlers comprise the first half of the checklist, while "wrestling holds" comprise the 2nd half of the checklist.

The inscription on the front translates to: For Cuco Conde from Kid Chocolate. Cuco Conde was a legendary Cuban boxing announcer and later promoter in Miami who was enshrined in the IBHOF in 2007.

Interesting $3.00 find!

Not to mention Harold Abrahams of Chariots of Fire fame on those uncut sheets.

Nice Schutter-Johnson. I saw that listing but passed. Not an easy card to find.

Not sure of the dating of this card, but it features strongman / wrestler / olympian Charles Rigoulot (Serie IV. - Les Champions Joseph-Milliat)

(Any background information that you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated.)

Not sure what to make of the holes through Rigoulot's face, but it's the first one I've seen (albeit in not too long of looking).
