[QUOTE=ethereal_reality;7187703]tovanger2, earlier this evening I happened across two interesting (and no doubt rare) postcards showing Jack Doyle's Training Camp in Vernon.

Lo and behold, I also found this postcard that shows the interior of the cottage. (postmarked 1915)

Pretty cool huh!

I think that full body portrait on the side wall is poor Ad Wolgast. On the back wall it looks like Johnny Kilbane, who won the World Featherweight title at Vernon in 1912 (and kept it until 1923).

Johnny, winning at Vernon (old file)


A little bit about Doyle and Vernon/Olympic
