Boyd Pierce, You Say.

I have exactly 100 different of these super cool wrestlers, but I had never heard of a name for them. So, who/what was Boyd Pierce? Photographer? Promoter? Thanks for posting those, sthoemke. I see a lot on your post that I haven't seen before. Any idea or wild guess how many there are total?

If anybody has a Dick the Bruiser available, I am definitely interested.

Boyd Pierce sold the photos by mail order.

I suspect there are well over a thousand different photos, perhaps much more.

He was also an announcer/commentator for Mid-South wrestling.

Thanks, sthoemke! That's 100% more than I knew before.

Fan clubs were really big in the 50's & 60's. This young lady made Cowboy Bob's card into a postcard. I wonder how many of these Alice typed out manually? She was very skillful and creative.

If someone wants to see them, I'll keep posting. It gives me a good excuse to look at them, too.

I would love to find a Boyd Pierce card of Dick the Bruiser.

wrestlingcardking 01-14-2017 10:30 AM

Keep posting love the Bruno and Gorilla ones the best so far.....any of Danny Hodge?

Exhibitman 01-15-2017 08:58 AM

I think Ernie Ladd was with the team formerly known as the San Diego Chargers

I have seen these a few times in the past. What is a fair wholesale price on the common ones?

Thanks,

Jeff

Exhibitman 01-15-2017 10:45 AM

I think I paid about $6 each delivered for Sammartino and McDaniel.

ibuysportsephemera 01-15-2017 12:17 PM

Thanks Adam...that also looks to be the price of sold ones on eBay.

Jeff

wrestlingcardking 01-15-2017 01:12 PM

Seems like a great price for what you get.

Dpeck100 01-16-2017 08:37 AM

I purchased most of this lot a few years ago because I liked the Dusty Rhodes examples. Three in the second row to the left are signed.


Are these from the same person?

Is the Destroyer signed? or is it part of the image?

wrestlingcardking 01-16-2017 12:45 PM

Destroyer is part of the image, as I have that one......i do love Dirty Dusty Rhodes....how cool is that?

Jerry G 01-16-2017 06:08 PM

Great cards, David! I see some of my favorite heels.

Forgot that I had Johnny Valentine with my autographs.

wrestlingcardking 01-21-2017 08:24 PM

I wouldn't mind that Johnny Valentine if you ever wanted to part with it. Nice piece.

Yeah, it's a great one, but not untouchable. I can sell or trade. PM me if you want to kick it around.

Very cool, Supplex55! I had never heard of Mr. Pierce until long after I started collecting his cards.

I WOULD LOVE TO BUY OR TRADE FOR MORE OF THESE CARDS. I have a complete set of 1954-55 Parkhurst Wrestling cards and a near set (115/121) 1955-56 Parkhurst Wrestlers available to trade.

steelcityexchange 06-22-2022 04:12 AM

Did a Google search to figure out more about the picture cards I have. I’ll try to post some pics on the computer today

I had one signed by Wahoo, but ended up letting a huge fan get it. Still have the signed Fritz one however.

Jerry G 06-23-2022 02:30 PM

KD! I like them all! Let's trade or sell. DM sent.
