Those are great pieces, thanks for sharing. Anything pre-championship of the G.O.A.T. is a treat to see.

1935 Brown & Bigelow premium


1937 D.H. Murnik


1937 Lucky Heart premium (one of only 3 known to exist)


A smaller (almost PC-sized) card of the 1937 Murnik, with a blue tint


1935 Detroit Free Press insert


1937 Globo Chewing Gum (France)


1936 Indiana Sport-Avion (France)


1942 United Tobacco Company album card, still affixed to the album cover (PSA incorrectly labels the set as a 1935 issue)


1954 Topps Scoops (with the "goop" still on it)

Thanks everyone. Here is my favorite Joe Louis piece. 30 x 40 painting by Gabe Perillo.
