On the other hand, a lot of pre early 2000's boxing stuff seems to be 'lost knowledge' area. Even some stuff that made into Jones' book then got 'forgot' by the hobby, like that T219 Red Cross is a different physical size than the other T219's. The stuff that didn't is a hodge podge of often vague memories. A stack of floppy's recording late 90's boxing would probably have significant value - a lot of notable cards then won't have actually appeared back in the hobby again. One of the things that makes baseball so much easier is that there are very few 'lost knowledge' cards; someone has a story to tell and does about pretty much every odd T206 that has appeared since the 1970's. We don't seem to have a long oral tradition with boxing and documentation is limited to like 2 or 3 places of very broad focus. |

Yeah true, Maybe someday. I probably don't have a huuuge treasure trove of material on file when it comes down to it, and back then it was much more memorabilia and photos then cards. I actually bought an adapter to try and transfer my files from my boxes full of floppies a few years ago, and I got about 2 or 3 floppies in and I hit a wall after realizing how time consuming it was...how long it took for my computer to decipher the floppies, even with the adapter...the time it took renaming the files from scratch so they could be searchable...and probably worst of all, how absolutely sh**ty the images from back then were...even when I thought I was using better equipment for that time period. |

Hi-
I had one of the multi subject cabinet cards like the ones posted here (mine is long since sold). Henry Moses and others on the Non Sports forum specifically stated it was not related to the Newsboy set. Henry had some excellent posts about mine (see link below). Unfortunately, the picture of mine does not show in the post but it was very similar to the ones that are graded. I think SGC just put Newsboy on the flip because whoever submitted it asked them to. That was a dumb move by SGC as it affects future knowledge so I do appreciate posts like yours and Henry's previous information that help to correct the record.
