Description: | A photograph of boxer Eric Boon (1918-1991) after winning the British lightweight championship, taken by Saidman for the Daily Herald newspaper on 15 December, 1938. Boon knocked out Dave Crowley (1910-1974), the holder, in the 13th round. Two Saidman brothers, Reuben and Barnet, worked as staff photographers for the Daily Herald. Their photographs are simply stamped 'Saidman' on the reverse, making it difficult to tell which of the brothers took the photograph. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Subjects: | gelatin silver print photograph | Temporal: | 15/12/1938 | Source: | Science Museum | Creator: | Saidman | Identifier: | 1983-5236/G06271 | Go to resource |
