Adam, seeking your knowledge on some photo's made into postcards. Attached are some pictures that I acquired a few years ago. They are all correspondence from Harry Mendel, Sports Publicist to Hall of Fame writer Barney Nagler. It appears to me that Harry simply took some photos, made them into postcards, wrote to Barney and mailed them. The writing gives some insights on some pretty special fights.

4 are from 1955 and the one from 1956 is just before Harry's passing in 56. The one in 56 is pretty cool as he states Floyd Patterson will beat both Archie Moore and Marciano!

The pictures should appear in sequence, front to back.

I would appreciate your take on the photos and any information you might know about either men. Thanks! Jim
