Hi Thanks for the help in  advance

Does anybody know any information on the Cane I have done some research and I believe it could be an american folk art cane.
It is ilustrated with lots of great boxers from the late 1800s to the early 1900s.

Jack Blackburn
Joe Gans
Billy Miske
Battling Levinsky
Harry Wills and Many More

i think the main feature of the handle is a carving of either jack johnson or sam langford

Any help or direction towards where we could find help would be appreciated I am trying to upload photos with non success am I doing something wrong

Thanks Claire

  Hi there and welcome to the forum !! No you are probably not doing anything wrong !!  The site is having picture issues and they are trying to fix the problem !!  The cane sounds very interesting,, looking forward to seeing it !!  How did you acquire the cane ??  Is there a family history or anything that might help us ??
