Missing fighter photos - Page 31

Think this one is Andreas(sic) Balsa of Spain, who fought Sam Langford at Mexico City in 1923.

Cap · 07-15-2004, 09:29 PM

Here's one you don't see every day. Nick Burley, turn of the century heavy who fought, amongst others, Tom Sharkey and Joe Choynski.

Cap · 07-15-2004, 09:33 PM

Here's a nice one of Australia's prince of journeymen, George Cook. Thanks to my good mate Shane McLeod.

James J. Walker, one of two men Tommy Burns knocked out in one afternoon at San Diego in defence of his recently won title.

Cap · 07-15-2004, 09:42 PM

Another one from the vaults. Kid Carter.

Cap · 07-15-2004, 09:47 PM

This one's for Andreas. Franz Diener of Germany.

Antonin · 07-15-2004, 11:47 PM

Gee whiz, Cap! Those are great photos...

Thanks for Burley Cap, he is one of the ones in my 1900 universe I didn't have a pic for.

Cap · 07-16-2004, 08:39 AM

I was rummaging through the deepest corners of the main photo vaults when I came across these two beauties:

A nice shot of George Cook taken the year he fought Larry Gains for the Commonwealth/Empire Heavyweight title (1933).

and this one of Luther McCarty taken at his training camp near Calgary, Alberta, just days before his fatal meeting with Arthur Pelkey (1913)

That's what this thread was set up for, my friend. Post requests for any pics you're still missing, and we'll all try to help you find them. Same goes for anyone on this board. I kind of specialize in 1890s to about 1950s heavies.

I was thinking that I'd go through my universe this weekend and make a list of fighters that I still don't have a pic for. I post it either here or in a new thread. I've done pretty good I'd say I have 75% of them.
