MAIN MASK
He's Ezra Francis, The Zulu. Interesting and feasible idea about Tony Costas.
I wonder if Tony Romero was a pre-DM Tony Costas?
The photo must be of Sugar Ray Do Do ripping off Masambula. He looks very familiar, just can't quite place him.
10/6, 10/6, 10/6.....
Brilliant Main Mask. Thanks. I agree that Haystacks would have been Ed Bright. The bill with Dodo obviously had a car coming down from Manchester - Dodo, Moser and John Paul. But what about the fourth seat. I don't know anything about Tony Marino, maybe he was a Lancashire boy.
Carl Lindenburgh has been a mystery to me since he was mentioned in the Pictorial History of Wrestling, which I read first time when I was about twelve.
Ed Bright seemed to be billed with a number of names, and in addition to Haystacks and the fighting farmer, I can recall him being billed as "Tiger" Bright.He was very much in the veteran stage at this time and I remember seeing him on several occasions at the Hackney Empire , never winning and sometimes disqualified. Also I doubt if he weighted as much as 20 stone. Brilliant posters.
Yes, I thought of Haystacks Bright but considered Wayne Bridges was on the bill. Must have been one of Wayne's very first outings, then?
And one of Ed's last?
"20 STONE GIANT FARMER" would not have been our Haystacks.
PS Sugar Ray Do Do ... I'm going to say that all afternoon.
Lovely posts, many thanks MM.
I'm guessing that's our Haystacks against Wayne Bridges?
Roger v Roger must be a first!
Some of these bills are upside down with Angus and Ski Hi in support bouts that should have been top of the bill.
Strangest for me is "THE INCREDIBLE WILD MAN...." against an opponent billed scarcely as sensationally: from Portsmouth. Like Portsmouth is the UK equivalent of Borneo? Some may say so ...
Here's an EDMONTON Bonus for HACK and ANGLO!..
