A pocket-sized handbook to boxing by the ex-flyweight champion Jimmy Wilde. A handbook in the publisher's original paper wraps. Ink inscription to the front paste down. Jimmy Wilde (1892-1969) was a Welsh professional boxer who competed from 1911 to 1923, who is often regarded as the greatest British fighter of all time. He was the first official world flyweight champion. This is his guide to the art of boxing, with a preface by Mr. 'Ted' Lewis, who was his manager for all of his great contests. This volume forms a part of Foulsham's Sports Library. Illustrated with fourteen illustrations of various stances. A page of publisher's advertisements to the rear. Undated, dated through copies held at the British Library. In the publisher's original paper wraps. Externally smart, though darkened and a little creased to the spine. Marks to the front of the wraps. Small tear to the head of the front joint. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Very Good.
