Harry Greb article

Abdullah, so true about our Harry...b.b.

 

Hey Burt, how have you been? When thinking of Greb, I often wonder just what his style looked like. I have an idea in my mind, but of course the chances of my idea being 100% correct are pretty slim. I would love to see Harry Greb doing his famous leaping off of the canvas to land a "jumping jack punch". I am almost finished with The Fearless Harry Greb. I could have finished it long ago, but I want to savor the book, as it is the only good book we have on Greb. I may just read it again when I am through. Nice to hear from you, Burt. I have told my mother about you and when I am on the computer typing she usually asks me "have you talked to Burt lately?".

 

Abdullah,Nice to hear from you again...I have read that book about our idol several times. Never tire of " The Fearless Harry Greb ".My father who saw Greb Would have loved that book..I just saw a movie with Bill Paxton, the author, who is also an actor...Give your mom my regards...She is fortunate to have you for a son...Keep the faith !..b.b.

 

Different Paxton Burt, but keep on keepin on!

 

SLAAKA, I stand corrected...Bill Paxton who wrote the Greb Book is a toiy and game inventor, NOT the actor with the same name...Thanks, B.B.

 

Burt, it's always nice to hear from you. I may end up reading The Fearless Harry Greb several times also, as it is a fine book. It saddens me that it has to come to an end. I bet your father would have loved that book. The only Greb book that your father had in his time was Give Him to The Angels, which is not a good book at all from what I have read about it. I will give my mother your regards and thank you, Burt. I wish you were my neighbor so one afternoon we could get together and throw something on the grill and watch some old fights or something. I would love to hear some of your stories in person. Keep on punchin', Burt! :good

 

Interesting article by the imdomnitable Harry Greb...The last word in this old article was COURAGE, and Harry Greb had this in spades...He was SOMETHING...
