Hi Boxing Fans
At the moment I'm working on a poster of all World Heavyweight Champions.
It's almost finished but I need colored photos of the champs if possible with championship belts.
* I don't know if colored photos of the early days (ca. before 1930's) exist.
Those boxers images are missing:
John L Sullivan
James J Corbett
Bob Fitzsimmons
James J Jeffries
Marvin Hart
Tommy Burns
Jack Johnson
Jess Willard
Jack Dempsey
Gene Tunney
Max Schmeling
Jack Sharkey
Primo Carnera
Max Baer
James Braddock
Ezzard Charles
Jimmy Ellis
John Tate
Mike Weaver
Tim Witherspoon
Greg Page
Trevor Berbick
Tony Tucker
Francesco Damiani
Bruce Seldon
If anybody got photos/scans as listed please be so kind and email me them to:
[email protected]
or post them here
Thanks for your assistance
Have a look

Re: World Heavyweight Champions
Interesting project; looks like fun.
You really don't need Damiani. When he was the WBO titlist, it was not considered a major title. It would be like counting the IBO or WBF champion.

The WBO wasn't considered a major title until after Lewis retired.Ambling Alp II wrote:Interesting project; looks like fun.
