old boxing bill poster's are sort after antique's these day's & are pretty trendy. i love just the writing & the illuminos back ground. it's all you need the fighter's name & manor & maybe a little message & sometimes a derek rowe snap

No mate there is nothing to buy it's purely an exhibition of east end boxing history from way back to present day if you looking for memorabilia you need to get to the annual fair at st Alosius hall every October near Euston station
