Thanks, each was tucked away in two different collections, my goal was to unite them. Took about 6 years

I've seen the San Fran and the LA team. Never seen the Sacremento team before. Dingman made some great postcards back in the turn of the century!

Here's a toughie: HOFer Jack Dillon's Bar:



Per cyberboxingzone.com:

Dillon was a tough, hard-hitting, aggressive attacker who moved well and possessed an abundance of stamina; He was considered by many to be a smaller version of Jack Dempsey, the heavyweight champion; Dempsey, who had never seen Dillon fight, once asked "Who does he fight like" ? "You" was the reply. Charley Rose ranked him as the #2 All-Time Light Heavyweight; Nat Fleischer ranked him as the #3 All-Time Light Heavyweight; Dillon was inducted into the Ring Boxing Hall of Fame in 1959 and the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1995

A few in the mail recently....the team is postmarked 1938..and am guessing the other is around 20-30 yrs earlier...
