Presented is a 49-card complete set of 1948 Leaf boxing cards. The 1948 Leaf boxing card set, with its neon-like colors and comprehensive representation of the time's most important ring figures, is a hobby classic. Such a distinctive appearance is not without its price, however: the product's coarse, unforgiving card stock makes the cards quite difficult to locate in high grade. Highlights include: #'s 1 Dempsey (VG), 9 Jeffries (VG), 17 Johnson (PR, pinholes), 32 Schmeling (GD/VG), 48 Louis (EX/MT), 55 Corbett (PR, pinhole), 64 Robinson (PR), 67 Carpentier (EX/MT), 73 Tunney (PR), 90 Carnera (PR), 93 Baer (GD), 101 Sullivan (GD) and 102 LaMotta (FR, marks). Grades 22% EX, 49% VG to VG/EX, 29% lesser.
