Cowboy Karl Davis vs Terry McGinnis 1930's 1940's professional wrestling wild Los Angeles match

For the first time online, here is Cowboy (Killer Krippler Karl) Davis vs Terry McGinnis from Los Angeles. The match is from the 16mm film titled Through the Ropes and was issued in 1940. Both Davis and McGinnis were mainstays in the Los Angeles territory for many years. As an interesting side note the referee is former wrestler Joe Varga, the father of LA wrestling great Count Billy Varga. This was a recent 16mm film purchase with much thanks for the ad and DVD support here on Youtube. Unfortunately when this film arrived I found it also has vinegar syndrome and has begun to warp. Luckily it went well through my transfer projector and made an excellent, sharp transfer. The film won't last for much longer but hopefully people will be able to enjoy the match for a long time.

Thank you all for your support, the ad revenue from Youtube helps me to purchase new films and continue with the transfers and uploads. Please continue to support the ads and DVD's
