1928 Jaime Boix Chocolates Die-Cuts Overview

1928 Jaime Boix Chocolates Die-Cuts Boxing.jpg This unique die-cut issue featured 40 boxers and was issued by Jaime Boix Chocolates, a candy company based in Barcelona, Spain.

Each card featured a color, die-cut image of a particular boxer. The artwork was not real good on these and, despite being named, the boxers look generic in nature.

Each boxer has a tab at the bottom that was designed to be folded and stood up to be fighting a counterpart. The tab also provided information about a fight between the pair. The cards are not entirely rare but are a little difficult to find with some being scarce.

Jack Johnson and Jack Dempsey cards are keys to the set. Johnson is featured only once but Dempsey is there three times. Paulino Uzcudun is there a total of eight times and Gene Tunney is found three times.
