Scans of an album will do it. There's actually a website dedicated to prewar European albums and their library is extensive. It's an outstanding resource for collectors. Here's the link:
Top Row: c1932 Krema (France) #22 Panama Al Brown, c1932 La Pie Qui Chante 3rd Series (France) Panama Al Brown
Bottom Row: c1930's Magniez-Baussart (Chocolat) (France) Panama Al Brown, c1930's Chicoree Belle Jardiniere (France) Panama Al Brown (same card as earlier post)
Top Row: c1952 Felix Potin (France) Un Direct de Cerdan (Marcel)
Middle Row: c1952 Felix Potin (France) Marcel Cerdan, c1952 Cantaloup Catala Perpignan Collection du Sport (France) Marcel Cerdan
Bottom Row: c1940's-1950's Collection d'Actualities du Chocolat du Prado (France) Portrait de Cerdan (Marcel)*, c1950 Produits Cibon (France) #86 Marcel Cerdan
*I wish I could more accurately date the Prado Cerdan—don't worry, I'm working on it—as it might be one of his earliest cards.
psa should grade MAGNIEZ, any idea how to get them to grade these ?
BTW, the 1930 Chocolats Magniez-Baussart - Les As Des Sports set includes cards beyond just the expected sports for the era; for example, it includes a Charles Lindbergh card within the set.
Not sure what year this was issued, but it was issued with Zvecevo Yugoslavia chocolate. I've seen other boxers of this same issue as well, Dempsey, Patterson, Robinson, and Fitzsimmons. This is the Joe Louis I picked up.

Thanks, Jeff. Yep, Panama Al is the main focus of my boxing collection, so it was great to add one that I have never seen. Let the quest begin for a Singleton & Cole Panama Al. Please indulge me by allowing me to put my top 6 Panama Al's in one post. I just wanted to see them all in one place. I added front and back scans for each card, so at least there is something new here.

He's a good seller, the card is coming from Serbia I believe, so it will take a little time to get overseas, but it got to me faster than I expected. I saw that Al Brown, and I kind of figured you might spot it! That's a rare item you just got, and it's pretty much impossible to locate, so congratulations!
Yes, the Globo set is my favorite boxing/multisport set of all-time. I wish I could finish it. That's a beautiful Louis. VG-EX is high-grade for this set.

ETA: I have some doubles if anyone else is working on the set and wants to trade.
So I just had some grades pop of the 1948 Topps Magic Photos. I submitted a Ray Robinson with the number on the back is on the side. Pop says it’s the only example graded. Is this a rare variation or is it more that PSA didn’t differentiate the variation until now?

The vast majority are Number on Side. The rare ones are the Number on Bottom version. Note that orientation distinction is the position of the number relative to the rest of the text on the back (since the back is a horizontal/landscape direction, it can sometimes be confusing which is "bottom"). The pop report shows cards graded prior to the onset of specifying which version was being graded, but almost all of them are number on side. The number on bottom ones carry a premium of approx 4x for sales value on average, but that multiplier goes up for a couple of the most desirable cards in the set. J.Johnson and J.Louis will have a higher premium multiplier than Robinson.
Also the checklist:
1. Charlie Chaplin
2. Wilfred Pickles
3. Winston Churchill
4. James Mason
5. William Shakespeare
6. Field-Marshall Montgomery ("Monty")
7. Ralph Lynn
8. Mr. Herbert Morrison

10. Jean Simmons
11. Sir Thomas Beecham
12. Stewart Grainger
13. George Robey
14. Sir Lawrence Olivier
15. Mr. Anthony Eden
16. Joe Louis
17. Mr J.B. Priestley
18. George Bernard Shaw
19. Ivor Novello
20. Paul Robeson
21. Mr. Attlee
22. Charles Dickens
23. Jose Ferrer as "Cyrano de Bergerac"
24. Gylnis Johns
25. George Arliss
26. Napoleon Bonaparte
27. Spencer Tracey
28. Maurice Chavalier
29. Ronald Shiner
30. Mr. Gladstone
31. Bob Hope
