I collect clippings about my relatives' boxing careers. Often it is all I can find about specific bouts or events.

IMO it is a bit snobby to denigrate what people collect because you don't like it. There is a thriving market for clippings, scraps and publication images, especially 19th century wood cuts and book plates. My boxing HOF collection has quite a few representing pioneers with no career contemporary cards or photos. I way prefer an old print to a modern tribute card
