The Ring. World's Foremost Boxing Magazine. Up and Coming Fighters. November 1953. Vol. XXXII. No. 9.

4to, magazine, glossy covers, illustrated, 64 pp. Some archival tape repairs to spine, slight darkening to covers, normal aging and browning; about very good overall. This issue contains Nat Fleiischer's ratings of top heavyweights. He rates Jack Johnson as the best all round heavy in history (up to that point). He gave the honor of best puncher to Bob Fitzsimmons. While there is an article on current heavyweights, this issue contains a lot of historical coverage, including stuff on Benny Lenard, Primo Carnera, and the Durable Dane. Also some coverage of a recent Don Cockell fight.
