Quite a timely string--about a week ago I was contacted by the great grandson of heavyweight champ Jim Jeffries inquiring about an item I won at auction. There is a street in my city named after Jeffries, who settled here and ran a local ranch and training facility.

I sold a couple of Rick Ferrell items to a relative of his, a few years ago.

I've also sold cards and related items to a relative of turn of the century heavyweight Tom Sharkey.

Finally, a couple of boxers have fallen out of my family tree. No baseball players yet, but you never know.
