As Per Your Request!......WILD TARZAN!-Behind The Ring Monicker was I do Believe...TOM RIGBY!!
I've Probably got him on Some Posters Somewhere in The Vault!!-But as you know-Just WHERE can
take a Lot of Sorting!!
In The Meantime............ From Late 1938 Thru 1941!!
Here.........
MM
I have two photos of Tom Rigby (the later Ringo Rigby was also billed as Tom Rigby to start with):
No!
I wanted this to be our big Tarzan discovery but just can't see it.
I see the Parr Hall bill MM. That's a good find.
But I'd be surprised if that's the end of the story. The mysterious Wild Tarzan story has got more mysterious.
Great items, thanks for sharing.
For sure Tarzan Hunter is a different Wrestler to Wild Tarzan. It's been looked after before and I even have the two on the same bill somewhere.
Rigby as Wild Tarzan looks good though.
Vick Hesselle Austrian Heavyweight tornado?
Thankyou so much Adrian , and there is a lot of sense in Tom Rigby. I very much had him again and again with Vic Hessle.
But here is the thing , some bills pass him off as Jack Ridyard of Canada and The Bear Cat . But now we have Tom Rigby as The Bear Cat . They often say Canada. Don't think Ridyard existed , but Tom Rigby makes more sense.
Would be nice to have a photo. During the war I believe his gimmick was to carry a Gas Mask.
A very good A-Z write up of Tom Rigby that does not make this connection.
Rigby was an entertainer as well and I can see him doing the Tarzan Call.
Maybe more work to do ???????
