This print showcases Jack McAuliffe, the renowned pugilist of the late 19th century. Taken as part of the "Worlds Champions" series by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes in 1887, this lithograph exudes confidence and strength. McAuliffe's arms are folded across his bare chest, highlighting his muscular physique and emphasizing his prowess in the ring. With a gaze that looks away from the camera, McAuliffe exudes an air of determination and focus. His Irish heritage is evident through his rugged appearance and undeniable charm. Known as the "Napoleon of the Ring" he was a lightweight champion who dominated bare knuckle boxing during this era. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to McAuliffe's portrait, capturing not only his physical attributes but also conveying a sense of pride for one's country and sport. The semi-dress attire adds an element of sophistication to this otherwise gritty depiction. Displayed at The Met museum, this iconic trade card preserves both history and artistry. It serves as a testament to McAuliffe's enduring legacy as one of America's greatest sportsmen. This lithograph by Claus Lindner Eddy and Claus Lindner Eddy represents an important piece from Allen & Ginter's collection - a fusion between popular culture and fine printing techniques. Through its vivid portrayal, this print immortalizes Jack McAuliffe as more than just a boxer; it captures him as an emblematic figure embody
