Did you get the large Muldoon that was offered also?

Yeah, it’s a really big albumen photograph glued to the Wood backing just like a normal cabinet or CDV. This isn’t my real area, I have a number of historical cabinets and a few boxers, so this size is new to me. I’m not sure what these are called, it’s significantly bigger than an Imperial Cabinet Card.
I did not get the Muldoon, as he’s posed as a wrestler and I have to draw lines somewhere. That one has a better picture though and I saved a scan. Shame this one has the liquid damage and some fading. I’ve had a Donovan cabinet on my want list for a long time. I hadn’t seen one before, he was retired by the time cabinets became popular so I wasn’t sure if there was one.
Are there other J. Wood ~8x10 boxers?
