I had to search on his name to find the card. How the heck do you get "Ringside Boxing Round Two - Turkey Red" out of "Sport Kings Mecca Cigarettes Boxing Champions"?

I prefer the company of people who disagree with me for the right reasons over the company of those who agree with me for the wrong reasons.

The original 1900s tobacco cards are collectively known as Turkey Red. Mecca was one of the various brands on the back of the original cards which included Turkey Red, Mecca, Helmar, Hassan, Ramleh, Murad.
