Found this one a long time ago, pretty sure it's Ben Taylor.

Cap · 07-18-2004, 09:34 AM

A lot of the lesser lights of pre-WW1 are very difficult if not impossible to find. Suggest trolling EBay. I think the only reason I found Taylor is because, for a brief moment in time, he was famous because of his fights with Jack Johnson, Gunner Moir, etc.

I think i've seen pics of crossley, hickey,egan, dooley, stewart before, I looked thru my files and i don't have them saved, I'll try to remember or track down atleast the source.

mh2365 · 07-18-2004, 03:17 PM

Thanks cap and cat, honestly I don't expect alot of these to be found. I'm pretty good at finding them if they are on the net. What I don't have is any at home memorabilia to scan.

Cap · 07-18-2004, 05:37 PM

Here's "a" Billy Smith from around 1900.

its on the website i just can't get it bigger than that. maybe you'll get it

crusadecat · 07-19-2004, 09:03 PM

The caramel colored kings photo archive has a photo of Mervine Thompson as well as many many other hard to find pics of fighters we are looking for. I just don't wanna pay what they are asking for the photos.

mh2365 · 07-19-2004, 09:08 PM

I can't get it any bigger without blurring it.

Thanks cap, I did an ootp board search on all the names before posting them, if any of them are on this site, then the search engine did a crappy job

LeeSkye · 07-19-2004, 09:25 PM

Quick fixup for John Flood

Thanks gentlemen.

crusadecat · 07-19-2004, 09:25 PM

Oh just as a side note, even though to my great dissapointment I could not find any portraits of prizefighters or photos. There were some great articles about Boxing at the BrooklynPublicLibrary.org And if you look in the Eagle they have old newspapers from 1840's to 1902 archived. Lotta fun to read about Mccoy and Creedon fighting for the middlewt championship. Good stuff

LeeSkye · 07-19-2004, 09:38 PM

And John Donaldson

LeeSkye · 07-19-2004, 09:44 PM

And best I can do for Martin Fiddler Neary
