Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2014
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/25/2014
Dramatic pics galore of glove meeting nose and other such images from the world of boxing, with a collection of 54 United Press wire/telephotos and 1 postcard, all circa-1950s. With an average size of 7” x 9”, we see Kid Galivan doing battle with Ernie Durando, several Bobo Olson images, unnamed fighters hitting the mat, referees making the call, Floyd Patterson and Hurricane Jackson’s “tale of the tape”, Rocky Marciano enjoying his 3-year old daughter’s birthday, and many, many more, often undescribed. There’s also a 5” x 7” postcard with the image of Archie Moore putting his opponent down, with the back (with stamp) written as to how Marciano will be the next victim. Just a great collection of wirephotos, complete with the usual handwriting on the backs showing size adjustments etc. All are in nice condition, although the postcard has a few creases in the top left corner.
