A Rare November 29, 1915, International Boxing program. The main event was between Matt Wells of England and Johnny Griffiths of Ohio. Wells was a former Lightweight Champion in Great Britain and Griffiths was a local newcomer. Despite the obvious experience advantage, Griffiths managed to win the bout. The program is in EX condition with some minor age related fading/foxing and three (3) small front cover scuffs. However, the program is in impeccable condition for its age and rarity and is a fine example of such an early boxing publication.
