can u send a non blurry pictureThis is the only image I can find of it. I don't own it , I was looking at it on Ebay. I think I figured it out. It is a yugoslavian chocolate company by the name of Zvecevg that made them I don't know what year, but there are also Jack Dempsey, and Floyd Patterson stickers/cards of the same series. I contacted the seller, but haven't heard back from him yet. Based on the back of the Dempsey sticker, I figured out a little bit about them.

In case you're interested, here is the full checklist. I am certain about the year. There are many cards in the set with text on back where their content provide evidence of 1930 being accurate.1930 Xocolata Viladas Agramunt - Quien Es El Campeon Mundial?

39 Augustus H. Orlebar (Aviation) England
40 Dr. Hugo Eckener (Aviation (Zeppelin)) Germany
41 Garfield Wood (Boat Racing) U.S.A.
42 Alain Gerbault (Sailing) FranceI have a copy of the Loughran. I believe these can be found with multiple different chocolate companies' advertisements. I have in my notes that they're also an Amattler set, although I don't have an image saved. I'm not sure why I would have put down a second company without an image reference but the same set being used by multiple companies was pretty common in Spain in that period. I guess I would say it's possible but not definitive. A lot of my notes were taken with the understanding that I was going to be the only one that ever cared about any of this so evidence wasn't the top priority.

Why is the text missing on the bottom card? Is it a more rare version or something?

The first you posted is 1938 Ardath, the second 1937 (as PSA recognizes them).
ETA: The 1937 are slightly more scarce (for the player I collect in both at least), but neither are very difficult.

Right now, I'm trying to find a 1993 Ritchie and co. Joe Louis card. It's my main focus. With my budget stretched, I have to save all of my ammo for the Ritchie and co. if I can find it. If anyone knows where to find it, please let me know. It's a 1993 Ritchie and Co. Joe Louis.
