In between, Sonny is photographed, among other things: taking care of business in the ring; as the picture of domesticity with wife Gerry; palling around with training camp mascot little Mikey Zwerner; training in Poland Spring , Maine with boxing champs Joe Louis, Joe Walcott & Jim Braddock his wife.
