Finest Collection of Boxing Tijuana Bibles We Have Seen (7)
A collection of seven Tijuana Bibles in which champion boxers are lampooned. The illicit cartoons depict Joe Louis, John Sullivan, Gene Tunney, Max Baer, Max Schmeling, Jack Dempsey, and Primo Carnera in pornographic parodies. The titles of the books play around with the boxers' names with Carnero appearing as "Canary," Dempsey as "Bimbsey," Schmeling as "Smellin," Tunney as "Tooney," and Baer as "Beer". They have rust stains around the binding staples but the print is crisp and clear.
