When people discuss the most beautiful card sets of the 19th century, the N162 Goodwin Champion set almost always tops their list. The set features bright, vivid colors and pictures champions from a number of popular sports. The most popular cards from the set continue to be the eight baseball players and the Beecher football card. In addition, cards for boxers are quite popular and the set includes early cards of John L Sullivan and Jack Dempsey among others. The set also pictures famous sports figures from Chess, Pedestrian, Tennis, Wrestling, Bicycling, Billiards and Rowing. The backs of the cards contain a checklist and can be found with or without a lithographer tagline at the very bottom of the card. A companion album was issued to complement the series.

This trio of N162 Goodwin Champions includes the following subjects: Buffalo Bill (Poor with heavy back damage but very nice front color and clean corners), McKenzie (Chess: GVG to VG condition with some back surface interruption) and Zukertort (Chess: VGEX condition with clean back and great color and corners). The chess players are always popular and Buffalo Bill is one of the keys to the nonsports part of the set.
