EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Victor Berliner, a renowned boxing promoter and manager, in 1938. With a warm smile on his face, Berliner exudes confidence and charisma as he stands against the backdrop of Premierland, a famous boxing venue located in Whitechapel. During the 1920s and 1930s, Berliner partnered with Manny Lyttlestone to organize thrilling boxing promotions at Premierland. Their events drew crowds from all over Britain who eagerly gathered to witness the intense matches held within this iconic arena. Berliner's expertise extended beyond event organization; he also managed bantamweight boxer Alf Kid Pattenden. However, due to eye troubles that plagued him in 1931, Berliner was forced to retire from active involvement in the sport. This print is part of a collection by The Print Collector29 featuring notable sports personalities from the early 20th century. It originated as a Churchmans Cigarettes picture card - an intriguing piece of memorabilia that has now become an invaluable historical artifact.
