Could be the boxer from Chicago: www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=30118&cat=boxer Could be the same as memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/r?ammem/cdn:@field(NUMBER+@b... and memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/r?ammem/cdn:@field(NUMBER+@b... from the Chicago Daily News.

Manager is probably Harry Gilmore Jr., son of Prof. Harry Gilmore (q.v.) Gilmore Jr. also managed Packy McFarland, another Chicago fighter photographed by Bain. Note that there is a (backwards) inscription at the right: S.S. 3-24-13. So it was either shot, developed, printed, or (what?) on that date, depending on who or what S.S. was.

how fabulous that flickr's reuniting families! were your Kellys from Ireland - probably the answer to that is, of course, so next question is, which part of Ireland?
