EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Al Delaney, a renowned Canadian boxer, in 1938. Born as Alex Borchuk, Delaney (1916-1997) made his mark in the heavyweight division of boxing. With an impressive career spanning 102 fights, he achieved 64 wins, 31 losses, and 7 draws. In this portrait captured by The Print Collector, we see Delaney exuding strength and determination. Dressed in his boxing attire - a vest and gloves - he embodies the essence of a true sportsman from the thirties era. His intense gaze reveals the focus and dedication that propelled him to become a champion. Delaney's notable achievements include winning the Canadian heavyweight title in 1941. This milestone solidified his status as one of Canada's most celebrated boxers during that time. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this image while emphasizing its historical significance. Preserved through decades, this photograph serves as a testament to Delaney's legacy within the world of sports. Displayed on a Churchmans Cigarettes picture card back then, this print has now found its way into Heritage Images' collection for all enthusiasts of sporting history to appreciate. It offers us an intimate glimpse into the life and persona of Al Delaney – an iconic figure who left an indelible mark on Canadian boxing during the mid-twentieth century.
