EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jimmy Walsh, the renowned British boxer, in 1938. With his striking presence and determined gaze, Walsh epitomizes the essence of a true sportsman. Born in 1913 and passing away in 1964, he left an indelible mark on the boxing world. Throughout his illustrious career, Walsh engaged in a staggering total of 91 fights. His impressive record boasts 68 victories, along with 20 losses, two draws, and one no contest. In 1936, he claimed the coveted British title by delivering a technical knockout to Jack Kid Berg. Later that same year, he successfully defended his championship against Harry Mizler. However, as fate would have it, Walsh's reign came to an end in 1938 when Dave Crowley defeated him on points for the belt. Despite this setback, Jimmy Walsh remains etched into boxing history as a formidable lightweight champion of his time. The print also serves as a reminder of its origin: A Churchmans Cigarettes picture card from England during the early twentieth century. It is not just an image; it represents both sporting excellence and cultural artifacts from Britain's past. As we admire this portrait of strength and determination captured through monochrome lensing techniques popular at that time period known as "the thirties" we pay homage to Jimmy Walsh - a true British champion who left an enduring legacy within the realm of boxing.
