1923 Exhibit Supply Co. – Dave Shade – Boxing Arcade Card
Offered here is an original 1923 Exhibit Supply Company real-photo boxing arcade card featuring Dave Shade, one of the greatest and most respected contenders of the 1920s golden age of boxing.
Shade was one of the very few fighters trusted to face the era’s legends, including Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney, and Mickey Walker, and he remained a top-tier contender for nearly a decade. Because of those historic matchups, Shade has become one of the most collectible names in early 20th-century boxing.
These Exhibit Supply Co. cards were produced for arcade and vending-machine display and printed in limited runs on photographic stock, making them far scarcer than mass-produced tobacco or candy cards.
Condition:
VG–EX overall with strong eye appeal. Light corner and edge wear from age and handling. Clean image with no writing or damage.
Card size: approximately 5 5/16" × 3 5/16"
