There are 20 Transfers in the set that often gets referred to as stamps because of the perforations. With the backwards writing on the bottom of each one it's obvious that they are actually transfers made to be wetted and applied to something else. They were issued in sheets of 20 which, as a whole, told the story of the Heavyweight Championship fight between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney. This group includes Dempsey Getting Careful, Dempsey's Face Is Covered In Blood, Tunney On The Floor To The Count Of Nine. Some wrinkles, ripples and soiling but they still present quite nicely for the low techincal grade.
