Description
1948 Leaf Boxing PSA Graded Set (49) This 49-card 1948 Leaf Boxing complete set captures boxing at a time when the country considered boxing to be one of the top US sports with packed arenas, people gathered around a radio hanging on every word. Joe Louis was the king of the hill in this era and this set encapsulates the cultural cornerstone that the sport provided with legends such as Jack Johnson, Max Baer and a boxer that has been accused of being a ringleader of the 1919 World Series fix, Abe Attell. Imagine a young collector trying to complete this set with the skip numbering, quite cruel for collectors. Missing only the virtually impossible card #50, Graziano. Includes: PSA Mint 9: 2 cards, #'s 44 and 77; PSA NM-MT 8: 32 cards, #'s 9 Jeffries, 15, 17 Johnson, 19, 24, 25, 27, 29, 32 Schmeling, 33, 35 Armstrong, 36, 38, 42, 47 Conn, 51, 55 Corbett, 58 Ross, 60, 63 Fitzsimmons, 65, 67, 69, 71, 73 Tunney, 78, 80, 90 Carnera, 93 Baer, 95, 98, 101 Sullivan; PSA NM+ 7.5: 2 cards, #'s 3 and 18; PSA NM 7: 11 cards, #'s 2, 7, 8, 13, 20 Greb, 48 Louis, 57, 64 Robinson, 74, 82, 88; PSA EX-MT+ 6.5: 1 card, #102 LaMotta; PSA EX-MT 6: 1 card, #1 Dempsey.Guide Value or Estimate: $20,000 - up.

Auction Type
Signature Internet Extended Bid: These Auctions are presented via catalog and online. Bidding is taken through our website or via phone. There are two phases of bidding during this type of auction: 1) Normal bidding: Bids are taken up until 10 PM CT the night the auction closes. 2) 30 Minute Ending: On a lot-by-lot basis, starting at 10:00 PM CT, any person who has bid on the lot previously may continue to bid on that lot until there are no more bids for 30 minutes. For example, if you bid on a lot during Normal Bidding, you could participate during Extended Bidding for that lot, but not on lots you did not bid on previously. If a bid was placed at 10:15, the new end time for that lot would become 10:45. If no other bids were placed before 10:45, the lot would close. If you are the high bidder on a lot, changing your bid will not extend the bidding during the 30 Minute Ending phase (only a bid from another bidder will extend bidding). If you are the only bidder at 10 PM, you will automatically win the lot at 10:30. Important: After normal bidding ends, you must be signed-on to the Heritage site to see the bidding option on lots where you qualify for extended bidding and you must be on an individual lot page to reflect the accurate time remaining for that particular lot.
