(SPORT--BOXING.) Group of 5 cards produced by the Hassan Cigarette Company. Chromolithographic cards, 2-7/8 x 2-5/8 inches, each, with each boxer's record of wins, losses and draws on the reverse. New York: Hassan Cigarette Company, circa 1900-1910
Includes cards of Jack Johnson (2), Joe Gans, Sam Langford, and Joe Jeanette. It is not clear how many different boxers were originally part of the series, but these five cards, with two different cards for Jack Johnson are a fair indication that there were more. Hassan was a cigarette that was largely a blend of oriental tobacco and domestic.
