Attell?
Is the man on the right Abe Attell?
|
L to R: Ad Wolgast, Jim Jeffries, Abe Attell. Johnny Coulon up top.

Thanks for the reply

Wow! Jeffries looks huge there. He was 6'1" or so, but those others were all 5'4 or less.

Wolgast 5'4" 135#
Coulon 5'0" 118# Attell 5'4" 124# Jeffries: 6'2" 225# In the paperweight and related photo I'd guesstimate Jeffries at around 250#-260#. He had ballooned as high as 300 before the Johnson fight. Coulon used to pull this trick where he'd press on a nerve in your neck and then ask you to pick him up. It was impossible. He even made it into his business card (w/Jack Dempsey): https://photos.imageevent.com/exhibi...o%20card_1.jpg |

He was still pulling this trick in 1962 at 73 years old.
