| There was a disappointing outcome for proposed sale of a vintage poster for a boxing tournament held at Blundell Park, home of Grimsby Town FC. Auctioneers Graham Budd had hoped the poster would fetch between £100-150, but it failed to find a buyer. Top of the bill for the 1905 event was a bout between Grimsby's Jerry Thompson, known as 'The Fighting Fisherman', and Londoner Joe Goodwin. The contest is believed to have ended in a draw. |
