Wrestling Signed Book (70+ autographs)

airjoedanairjoedan Posts: 776 ✭✭✭

I just purchased part of a fight doctor’s collection, which included many wrestling and boxing multi-signed items.

Inside the lot was this large book with tons of signatures on the inside covers and throughout individual pages (several dozen signatures inside). This was a surprise inside as this was thought to just be an unsigned book in the box!

The individual pages are easy to figure out as they are labeled but the inside covers are pretty tough as the signatures are in all directions. I do see some 90’s greats from when I watched (Undertaker, Rock, Vince McMahon). The autographs would have been obtained from 1995-2005 period based on all the credentials and such in the collection.

Does anyone recognize any other signatures on the covers?

Thanks!

    I’m no expert, but I see Fred Blassie and King Kong Bundy. Also looks like Hillbilly Cousin Luke and Sunny but not familiar with either of them... Other guesses are Iron Man, Tommy Cairo, Kodiak Bear, Ida May Martinez - but they aren’t names I know either.

    Thank you everyone for the help. I started a numbered list (the best I could order them) when finding and labeling the responses so far.

    Quite a puzzle!

    The Bushwhackers I pointed out are on the first pic right side, you can make out Butch but not sure what is before it

    Back cover right side #1 is Mideon (aka Dennis Knight, Phineas I. Godwinn and Tex Slazenger)

    I think #3 is Johnny Valiant (not Jimmy Valiant as listed.)

    I think 7 is Diamond Lil. Google “Diamond Lil wrestler” and there are some signed photo images that look right.
