Oakland Frankie Burns is to be distinguished from New Jersey's Frankie Burns.

Besides boxing, Burns was also a famous motor car manufacturer and race-car driver. See, for example, Los Angeles Times, Feb. 12, 1923.

He died in early October 1944, as he was given an honorary ten count at the October 11, 1944, boxing show at the Oakland Auditorium.
