This auction is for a 16MM film containing narrated highlights of the light heavyweight bout between Harry “Kid” Matthews and Bob Murphy, both of whom were hoping for a shot at champion Joey Maxim. This show was part of the Greatest Fights of the Century series.
The show contains awesome Vaseline Hair Tonic and Vaseline cream commercials!
The B&W picture is very good (see actual screen shots), the sound is strong, the film runs smoothly, and there is no vinegar smell. The... film is complete with beginning titles, and it ends with a promo of the next week’s show with the fight between heavyweight champ Ezzard Charles and light heavyweight champ Joey Maxim. Total running time is 14 minutes.
Thanks for looking at this great piece of boxing history.
