Lot # 1262: 1948 Leaf Boxing Near Set (48/49)

Students of the "sweet science" come out swinging with the offered 1948 Leaf Boxing near set of (48/49) cards. With exception to 92% displaying pencil writing on the upper left corners of the fronts, these punishing pugilists otherwise present mid-grade. Unless noted, all keys display writing. Highlights include: #1 Dempsey (trimmed), #9 Jeffries (VG-EX), #17 Ja. Johnson, #32 Schmeling, #38 Sharkey, #48 Louis (VG), #51 Pep, #55 Corbett, #64 R. Robinson, #73 Tunney, #90 Carnera, #93 Baer (VG), #101 Sullivan (VG) and #102 LaMotta. Only missing the near impossible #50 Graziano for completion.
