Like this Larry Foley?

Thanks David. Forgot about the football players. I have also seen the Mick Dooley with and without Dogshead ad on back. I use to collect the N174 nonsports. I will attach a scan of a favorite that I sold.

Adam,
I forgot about that card, so in theory the other N174 Aussies (ie Fitzsimmons) could arise with the Dog's Head back.

Aaron,
THat's the UK set I was talking about (that features Jem Smith)

I have always believed the Australian issue matches up with the UK Dog's Head issue. So yes, I believe a Dog's Head Fitz does exist or did...same as a Peter Jackson Dog's Head.

The Jem Smith is the only boxer in a series all its own, at least that I'm aware of.

Here is the other half to Adam's card...

Forgive me for being slow (it's Friday) if I missed it, but is the back on your Foley imprinted or blank?

That still wouldn't explain why the Aussie Rules football players have the advertising on the back. They certainly wouldn't be UK issued, but are part of the same Aussie Old Judge set with the boxers and politicians.

Adam, the back is blank as with all Australian Boxer OJ's that I've seen.

David, I can't comment on the Aussie FB players as I have only focused on the boxers. For every Dog's Head Boxer I've seen I have also seen the Australian counterpart. Obviously, with Dog's Head Boxers being so rare I have only seen a handful so my sample size is small but again I have documented an Australian OJ to match everyone so far.

Hi Guys! I just found this forum. In answer to Adam's question-my Fitzsimmons is not pink.

Brent-Why do you assume that the Dogs Head boxers were a UK rather than an Australian issue?
