This 19th century creation is in its original frame (VG with some foxing), measuring approximately 14x20". A paragraph under the illustration reads, "Jack Randall born Nov. 25, 1794, 5 feet, 6 inches high, weighs 10 st. 6 lb; has beaten Jack the Butcher in 20 minutes, Walton in 10 minutes, Geo. Dodd in 25 minutes, Ugly Borrock the Jew in 12 minutes, West Country Dick in 33 minutes, Holt in 25 minutes & only 8 rounds, Belasco in 54 minutes & only 7 rounds, Parish in 53 minutes & only 11 rounds, Turner in 2 hours & 16 minutes, Martin in 53 minutes & many others of less note, in short he has never been beaten." He ultimately had a 16-0-1 record - all of his wins were knockouts. He was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2005.
