Description: 1908 Ogden's Pugilists & Wrestlers # 40 Peter Gotz (VG/EX)The 1908 Ogden’s Pugilists & Wrestlers set is one of the most popular tobacco boxing and wrestling sets around.The set is really two sets in one. The first set of 50 cards was released in 1908 with a second shorter set consisting of 25 cards being distributed in 1909. The cards are your typical cigarette cards with color images on the front with the athlete’s name at the bottom. Backs had a short biography of the athlete as well as a brief mention of Ogden’s, the issuer, at the bottom.Similar to the 1888-89 Allen & Ginter N28 & N29 series, pictures of the athletes stand out as they are set against a plain white background.Many of the sports’ stars are found in the release. Boxers include Jack Johnson, John Sullivan, and James Jeffries while wrestlers include the legendary George Hackenschmidt and Frank Gotch. From a wrestling standpoint, Hackenschmidt headlines the 1908 set while Gotch is the star in the 1909 issue.One interesting note for baseball fans is that Abe Attell is featured, too. Attell’s name will be familiar to some as he was one of the alleged gamblers (more specifically, a middleman) involved in the fixing of the 1919 World Series between the Chicago White Sox and Cincinnati Reds.
