Murderers' Row (boxing)
Has anyone tried collecting this group of fighters:
Charley Burley Lloyd Marshall Holman Williams Herbert "Cocoa Kid" Lewis Hardwick Jack Chase Eddie Booker Aaron Wade Bert Lytell I have an eBay search on Burley, but it never seems to hit on a period piece. Was wondering if anyone has anything representing any of them they'd like to share. Did any of them get a card? Thanks!

Most of these guys are pretty tough to find decent memorabilia on, for whatever reason. I'll start off with some Charley Burley. These are going to mostly be from my library of previously sold stuff, so likely nothing still in inventory.
The first couple are actually Burley vs. Lloyd Marshall, so you get a two for one.

Very, very tough stuff. Every time one of them make the HOF collectors have kittens trying to find something. Some of them have no career-contemporary ("CC") cards or only a card or two and they are obscure or rare.
Charley Burley: no known CC cards Lloyd Marshall: 1940-70 Boxing News (UK) Holman Williams: 1946-47 Propagandas Montiel (Cuba), plus a RPPC I have. Herbert "Cocoa Kid" Lewis Hardwick: no known CC cards Jack Chase: no known CC cards Eddie Booker: no known CC cards Aaron Wade: no known CC cards Bert Lytell: no known CC cards Absent cards, I go with publicity photos. Those do exist for the Cocoa Kid, Booker, Marshall and Burley. Perhaps for the others, I just haven't chased them.

Wow! Really enjoyed looking at everything. I'm glad I asked. Thanks Dave and Adam.
Adam, was hoping you would join in - I just read your SCD HOF article, so I figured you would know. Last edited by TanksAndSpartans; 02-10-2021 at 03:15 PM.
