Fight Stories, Fall 1949

A replica of the Fall 1949 issue of FIGHT STORIES pulp magazine featuring ONE FIST WAS IRISH! by Larry Holden. "The fighting blood of a thousand Irish warriors coursed through the rugged frame of tough Barney Nolan; sprung him to the fistic heights, and then flung him down onto the canvas ... into oblivion, as a ring battler whose fiery temper outweighted the power of his gnarled fists."

Kurtzer, LEATHER LARCENY by Larry Sternig, HOMECOMING! by Francis K. Allan, THE BUM by Don Shea, and ONCE THEY KISS THE MAT by Nathan Broch.
