No other publication has ever covered the sport of boxing more thoroughly than "The Ring." The self-proclaimed "Bible of Boxing" was first published in 1922, and a good swath of its history is included here, with issues dating from 1943 to 1986 preserved in 32 NRMT leather-bound volumes. Hundreds of issues ranging from VG (older editions) to NRMT (newer ones) are preserved here, with a handful of issues trimmed to fit the bindings. There is a gap between 1962 to 1972, but otherwise, there are decades of fantastic pugilistic history here, including features on lesser-known fighters and bouts.
