Signed 1950s photos from Sam Bartram's personal collection - help needed to identify them

Henry Irving

One of the museum trustees, Paul Baker, has been scanning the hundreds of photographs that made up Sam Bartram's personal collection of memorabilia. See new museum item's thread.

But we found these two photos of what we assume were famous people in that era. George Jones was presumably a boxer but any details of his career? EDIT It was George JAMES former heavyweight champion of Wales http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/George_James

And who is the other guy and why was he famous?

Great spot, he's even got the same trunks on.

All down to google :-)
He’s briefly in this clip, on the wrong end of a beating from Bruce Woodcock
