Help Identify Please
Been talking with some fellow collectors. Pretty confident the following boxer is listed here;
http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hum...7453&cat=boxer Came from an Australian Collection, along side the Thompson and an Abe Hicken CDV. Also talked to some Aussie specialists who believe he was at least a backer or ref. However they were also confident the boxer matches CC Wiliams. (Chuck, Cliffton ? ) Anyways anyone know? http://i1365.photobucket.com/albums/...psf0a50570.jpg |
Hard to match without a photo.
We know the guy above was either a ref or a fighter. This issue also featured famous refs. The print is rather tough to make out, could say L.C Williams . This could in fact be Luke Williams who was a famous referee.

You might want to contact Arnold Thomas, if you haven't already.

Graci!
Thanks Dave! I contacted him. We will see what he says.

Hello everyone,
Here is my copy of the Old Judge card. The subject is definitely L. C. Williams. There's a good chance he is boxing related, but I'm not sure! I have and have had quite a few cards from this series, Footballers, Cricketers and Boxers. To add a note, all of the cards I have purchased have come from Australia. |
Hey Mark, good to hear from you. Thanks for the info. Any other boxers you have and would care to show?

Hey
Thanks for the info!
I am 99% certain that this man is one of these two subjects below; http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hum...7453&cat=boxer http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hum...32&cat=referee Pretty certain its the boxer. Abe Hicken reffed a lot of fights in Australia. And the L.C Williams Dog's Head I have is from a boxing collection in Australia. I got this one with the Jack Thompson dog's head card. -John |
Hi John, Adam,
Of the two Boxrec stats you have, I prefer the Luke Williams referee over the Williams boxer. Cards from either of the series are difficult. I have six of the blank backed cards and only one Dogs Head. If my memory serves, Adam, I remember you had the pink tinted Peter Jackson card from me quite a few years ago! Mark. |
I have found old judge dog's head to be the most rare. Seconded by Gypsy Queen Top Logo. I think this must be Luke Williams the ref.
