Here is a better image of the Monzon. Also, I am thinking that the set may be a 1970 issue. The first line of Monzon's bio reads "world middleweight champion from the November 7, 1970 and bears an impressive series of victories -63- not being defeated in 7 years" Monzon had 69 straight wins by the end of 1970. Also, since the set is primarily a soccer set and the summer in Argentina is the winter here, perhaps they issue cards in the fall the way our mfgs issue in the spring? I did look it up and the Argentinean pro league season is August-May, broken into two sessions the first of which ends in December, which does suggest that the cards could be made in the fall to match the soccer seasons.
