I am currently reorganizing my photo archives so these were easy to find as I just finished my Olympic boxers. A few photos of Eddie Eagan from the Bowlby American Olympian photo archives.

His signature from 1922 when he was at Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship. From an envelope he sent to Spike Webb longtime boxing coach at the Naval Academy and U.S. Olympic Boxing coach 1920, 1924, 1928, 1932.

The US Signal Corps probably took photos of all of the American competitors at the Inter-Allied Games. Here is one of Fred Faller. Fought in WWI. Competed 1920 Olympics. I met him in 1984 shortly before he died.
