Two splendid editions include: 1) Life and Battles of James J. Corbett (1894), published by The Mirror & Life (the British equivalent of The Police Gazette). Almost identical to the Richard Fox American edition it sports a fabulous full color lithographed cover. Cover has fold but is o/w excellent, some pages are loose due to their extremely fragile and brittle nature. Overall very good. 2) My Life & My Fights by J.J. Corbett with beautiful illustrated cover. Circa 1894. Tape on spine o/w very good.
