EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the ring with two boxing greats as they face off in this print photograph taken between c1910 and c1915. John Gutenko, also known as "Kid Williams," stands tall alongside Henry Treffinger, nicknamed "Young Britt." The pair of bantamweight boxers likely posed for Bain News Service photographer George Grantham Bain in Baltimore, Maryland.
The black and white image captures the intensity and focus of these two world-class athletes. Gutenko's determined gaze meets Young Britt's confident smirk as they prepare to face off in a thrilling match. The photograph not only showcases their skills but also highlights the camaraderie between opponents before a big fight.
This rare glimpse into the early 20th century boxing scene is a testament to Bain News Service's commitment to capturing life's most iconic moments through photography. As part of Heritage Images, this print offers a unique window into America's rich sports heritage and its legendary boxers.
