    This article is the best I've read on fight film collecting.

    Greb V Tunney its a crime there's no known footage of it. would be historic if even a clip is discovered

    I enjoyed that. Jim Jacobs was an interesting guy. Imagine the films that would've been lost without his interest. Too bad he didn't live to see the day the Greb training footage came up in around 1990 or so.

    If a collector would put up $100,000.00 to purchase a Greb fight, the odds of one being " found " woud go way up. I think Pittsburgh and Germany would be the most logical places to look. Perhaps Cleveland.

    No doubt about it....Greb Tunney. Both men are way more handsome than that hairy ugly brute Simon.
    There are plenty of Louis films, few on Tunney and of course zero of Greb.

    Doh !!!! Greb is shangrlia, never never land, utopia, the garden of eden, nector, the best you have been with, your face will be like the person who opened the briefcase at the end of Pulp Fiction, you will look at your partner, the way Bonnie and Clyde, did in the final frame of said film,
    seeing your children being born will pale, lottery wins will be short change, death will hold no fear thereafter, you asking us which one we would like to see, get out of here.....
