As a fan of modern wrestling, I was very lucky to acquire these great postcards as well as a full set of wrestling cigarette cards from 1911/1913. Alex Monro (1870-1934) was a strongman, olympian, tug-o-war champion and wrestler...and policeman! Checking the local newspaper archive, I can see that he had many fights in the UK and one big one in the USA. I have yet to find his obituary as I am sure that would be an interesting read. I'll keep looking! In the meantime, here are the wrestling cards. They come with a full set of instructions on the back so you can try them at home!
