1920s Ebbet's Field Boxing Programs

[GGterps]

Picked these up over the weekend. Have not been able to find other Ebbet's Field Boxing programs pictured online. The colors and design are outstanding. The programs fold open and list inside other boxers on the card that night. They measure approx 7 x 10". Notice how the programs cost 15 cents in 1926 and 10 cents in 1929. How scarce are these and what is a estimated value? Which one is the most desireable?

Can't help you on value, but those are terrific. I'm not really a boxing fan, but old boxing memorabilia really appeals to me for some reason. Those were some tough guys.

Those are some great programs. Harry Wills vs. Sharkey would top the list in desirability with the Kid Chocolate next.

I believe these are only 4 page fold-outs, so that keeps the desirability down a bit compared to other full programs of the era.

Wild guess estimate at auction if condition is decent.........aren't they all wild guesses where memorabilia is concerned?

Wills vs. Sharkey $300-400
Kid Chocolate $150-200
Tod Morgan $75-100

Retail setting would probably list for higher.
