Does anyone know about the strange emblem in the centre screen and the time code It's quite odd footage grateful to be able to watch it though Wish someone could enhance the footage aswell make it clearer
It's actually the French C*ckerel.,Pathe's trademark The fight was in Luna Park Paris 20th Dec 1913, the day after Jack Johnson defended against Battling Jim Johnson in Premierland Paris, and was recognized by the French authorities as for the vacant heavyweight title as they had stripped Johnson of their version of it. Langford looks rather open here, but Jeannette is the big disappointment , I don't see the skills he was supposed to possess.Sam just walks him down.
