Film Footage

Post by joshua »

Does any one know of any possible film footage of Red Herring? One of the only bouts that I could think of that would have film was when he faught Sgt. Sammy Baker at Yankee Stadium on the undercard of the Stribling-Berlenbach light heayweight championship fight.

I read somewhere that BIGFIGHTS INC,
had about 16,000 different bouts in their collection before it was sold to Disney company a few years ago.
BIGFIGHTS INC,was the combined collection of fight films of Bill Cayton,
who started collecting fight films back in the 1940's I believe and
Jim Jacobs fight film collection which they combined in 1961 to make
BIGFIGHTS INC.
In 1970,they produced and directed the documentary
JACK JOHNSON,THE BIG FIGHTS
which I think won a academy award.
The same year 1970, they also produced and directed the documentary
AKA CASSIUS CLAY.
