Any Vintage Boxing Experts?
I recently bought a bunch of boxing autographs from the 30s-70s. I have never collected or owned any vintage boxing autographs but thought it would be fun to research. I was able to identify the following signatures...are any of them worth getting authenticated by a 3rd party at all (ie rare/valuable)? I couldn't find comparables on many of them.
Eddie Cool Eddie Zivic Carlos Zarathustra Phil Terranova George Chaney Freddie Steele Kenny Lane Lou Ambers Sammy Angott Carmen Basilio Sal Bartolo Tony Barone Kennedy Clark Archie Goodbee Sr "Archie Gibbons" Johnny Addie Bill Bossio Hal TNT Carroll Johnny DeJohn Tony Storace Ben Becker Johnny Ward Tommy Loughran Gus Dorazio Ken Overlin Lew Tendler LeRoy Haynes Paul Hoft Sam Parrota Pete DeRuzza Havey Boyle Andre Jessurren Unidentified Signatures: #1 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/clw4htnw.JPG #2 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/x58i5w81.JPG #3 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/s2893p70.JPG #4 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/78778073.JPG #5 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/49ecw0x6.JPG #6 - Nick Cavalli https://sportscardalbum.com/c/h91q30r3.JPG #7 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/7klep4wp.JPG #8 - Jose Santa https://sportscardalbum.com/c/52f40q9z.jpeg #9 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/5wz8600q.JPG #10 - Jersey Joe Walcott. 2nd signature appears to be his manager, but doesn't look like Felix Bocchicchio? https://sportscardalbum.com/c/802k2y33.JPG #11 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/jt65i8iw.JPG #12 - Carlo Cavagnoli https://sportscardalbum.com/c/9k36eb48.JPG #13 - Lee Savold https://sportscardalbum.com/c/00un521p.JPG #14 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/tq79t899.JPG #15 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/hsepa1z2.JPG #16 - Leo Montenaro https://sportscardalbum.com/c/a640a38y.JPG #17 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/7rp80koq.JPG #18 https://sportscardalbum.com/c/snfa693m.JPG |

Or Carmen……don’t have boxrec open at the moment.

#23. Pete Virgin
|
I think #13 is Lee Savold
|
Looks like a lot of European signed sheets. Boxrec might help you narrow some names down using the % search tool.

Don't know if they are typo's and you don't have them pictured, but a couple corrections to your list:
Johnny Addle - most likely Johnny Addie (promoter/manager type) Bill Bassio - likely Bill Bossio Nice collection, but don't really see any worth paying the authentication fee on quite yet. Even the bigger names like Tommy Loughran and Lew Tendler, the authentication might cost more or similar to, what they are actually worth. |
A couple of nicer ones.
#30. ...and I'd like corroboration from somebody else. Above the Nick Cavalli signature......that sure looks like Victor "Young" Perez. Maybe, that might warrant authentication. Look up his story. Fascinating...and pretty damn sad. #31 Carlos Monzon |
