I am not sure who you mean by Private G Harris. Do you mean Private Jim Harris of the Coldstream Guards (active 1907 to 1921 and near championship standard)?

David, I don't need any credit for the picture. It is just one of many that has been sitting on my laptop for years and I can't remember why I saved it, probably from when I was interested in Carpentier. It came from 'Boxing World and Mirror of Life' but I don't know the particular issue.
