I just picked up a small assortment of boxing cards and I have some questions about authenticity and whether they are reprints or not.
3 Hassan Cigarettes cards (1910 Champions T-218), they seem thinner than most cards, almost like a playing card. Is this correct?
1951 Ringside, pretty confident in this being good. Shadow on back is from my phone
1948 Leaf Dempsey. Not a marked reprint, seems OK ? Shadow on back is from my phone
Sanella, paper thin...is this correct?

All the cards look good except I have no idea about the Sanella's as I have never seen them before. Also I have never seen the black and white photo.

The B&W is exactly what is says, apparently they were in "Boxing News" magazines. There are a few on ebay. The Sanella are more known for the Babe Ruth, but I have no experience with that either except for the pictures.
Thanks for checking out the others for me. Anything big 4 related I'm pretty good on, but I haven't handled any of these in the past.
Yes, the Sanellas are very thin. I'm not an expert, but I'd say yours are good.
Thanks AFLfan. Nothing leads me to believe anything from the group that I got isn't good, but I just like to do the due diligence thing so it seems like I know what I am doing.
