Description

Originally released July 22, 2014

Parv, Kelly and the one and only Mr. Dylan Hales trawl  through some of the obscure backwaters of wrestling history. They flick  through some newsletters from the 1970s, including Wrestling Nostalgia,  Spotlight on Wrestling, The Encyclopedia of Pro Wrestling Vol. 1, and  Book of the Year 1963. Topics include: Dr Jerry Graham; Verne Gange's  place in wrestling history; old and forgotten outlaw promotions;  Quasimodo: the wrestler!; hookers, barnstormers and side-show acts; how  Hard Boiled Haggerty invested his money; race relations in Florida in  the 1960s; and loads more random obscurity of historical interest.
