When did the New York State Athletic Commission start?

I've seen that the commission got it's beginning in 1920 but here is an article in the ny times that refers to the commission in 1912.

again, any info that can be shared on this would be much appreciated.

 

yes, the walker law was passed in 1920 but there are three articles you can pull up at the new york times that clearly talk about the nysac. the first being in 1911. one article even talks about a boxing promoter trying to get approval from the commission.

 

thanks for the post. good information.
