Another one from 1962 continuing the Mid-Heavyweight tournament:
Thanks for posting this programme, appreciate. Which year is it? This bill calls Alf Cadman of Manchester the winner of lightweight (I am assuming light-heavyweight) ACES KO Tourney.

I like the idea that cigarettes were provided by WD and HO Wills, and gramophone records were borrowed for the night.
1962:
I attended a few shows at The Stamford Hall, Altrincham, in the early seventies. I recall on one show the main supporting bout was billed as Hans Streiger versus Honey Boy Zimba. M.C. Martin Conroy announced that Zimba would not be appearing and his place would be taken by Albert "Rocky" Wall, then British heavyweight champion. Wall proved to be an excellent substitute and eventually beat Streiger by disqualification after a wild bout.
I have seen programme of a charity show put on by Wryton with ACES. But charity shows were not uncommon.
