Wrestling started at the Newly-Opened LIVERPOOL STADIUM in 1930-in Tandem with
KINGS HALL BELLE VUE MANCHESTER!
Initially in the Early Years Shows were 'Shared' between Wrestling and Boxing and the
Arena was one of Real Pugilism!
Even Decades later my own Visits to this 'Pit of a Place' left me with the 'Abiding Smell and
Taste' of the Hall-the Smell and Taste of Blood and Sweat!
Below I Share one of my own Original Gems-A Mega-Rare 1933 Programme and it's in
Mint Condition!-Enjoy!.....
MAIN MASK
It's there to see that even as early as this Bankier (Apollo) had started a great venture with Best that was to go on until his death I think in 1949.
Oakeley of course wanted to do Liverpool so then promoted at Stanley Track.
