Rare and beautiful set of 4.25x3" cards came originally from Spain. In full color, they were issued by, "Amatller Chocolates." A complete set of thirty-eight includes eight cards of Gene Tunney & Jack Dempsey alone or together, in light of their recent mega-bout. Plus, Battling Siki, Mike McTigue, Jack Sharkey, Georges Carpentier, Jim Moran, and some Spanish fighters. They are in the desired heavy card stock and we have never seen an entire set before, just a few loose cards. Overall EX.
