A second c. 1910 card I find amusing. The artist didn't get lazy this time, but I must question the life decision to tat a big red sailboat on your chest.

Deshler was a journeyman whose W/L is about 50/50, but he did fight Packey McFarland to a draw in 1909 when McFarland was racking up a huge string of victories against pretty good guys. He was a good fighter when his card was produced. This is the T219 cropping.
