    'Benny Leonard (born Benjamin Leiner; April 7, 1896 – April 18, 1947) was an American professional boxer who held the world lightweight championship for eight years, from 1917 to 1925. Widely considered one of the all-time greats, he was ranked 8th on The Ring magazine's list of the "80 Best Fighters of the Last 80 Years" and placed 7th in ESPN's "50 Greatest Boxers of All-Time".'

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Dempsey
    "William Harrison "Jack" Dempsey (June 24, 1895 – May 31, 1983), nicknamed Kid Blackie and The Manassa Mauler, was an American professional boxer who competed from 1914 to 1927, and reigned as the world heavyweight champion from 1919 to 1926. A cultural icon of the 1920s, Dempsey's aggressive fighting style and exceptional punching power made him one of the most popular boxers in history."

    has a discussion about the image, indicating that it also includes "Commissioner Daly, Jack Kearns, Billy Gibson" and is probably from the early 1920s.

    Thanks Richard Norton, swanq, and swanq. We'll update the catalog records.

    If this is part of the 1920 Police Field Days, this might be taken in the gymnasium on the top floors of the Police Building in Little Italy, (240 Centre St, built in 1909). The building was converted to luxury co-ops in 1988 and the gym is now a 6,600 sq ft duplex, unit 5H. Pretty, but pricey.
