    McGrain will post them. These are never before seen photos. I will ID them as McGrain posts them, technology willing of course.

    As good as the Louis photo's are, the Jack Johnson ones I have are even better.

    I also have some on Schemling, Jeffries vs Sharkey II, and some Corbett. All action ring photos from the films themselves.

    Nice.

    A shot of Paychek copping it in the mouth would be good if you have it.

    Great stuff Mendoza. Thank you, very much.

    I love how fighters look like they're in life threatening danger when Louis connects with them. Just look violent.

    Thanks. I have some talent in photography. My goal was to snap the dramatic moments of the matches. IMO boxing is the best sport to photo.

    Don't call him Z, you'll blow his cover.

    My favaourite is the Shmeling one. Max looks like he might be about to die. I should have pretended I took these really...
