I know there are cards out there with an older Verne, but does anyone Have a card depicting him in his prime? I'd love to rematch him with Lou Thez and see who comes out in top definitively!
Sorry to bug people again, thank you for reading.

There's a strong AWA Verne bootleg that matches up quite well with the official Thesz card. They did wrestle during this era at, I think, Comiskey Park. I believe Gagne might have won that one. Of course, he was the promoter. 😉

It's in one of the UBU sets that focus on the AWA.

As a correction, Gagne and Thesz met up in 1967, but it was not at the ballpark. Verne would have been 41 years old and Lou a decade older at the time.
