1921 Exhibit John L. Sullivan. The Great John L was the first great American world heavyweight champion. He would often enter a saloon and proclaim that he could lick any SOB in the place, and make good on the promise. A notorious partier in his youth, the old Sullivan became a crusader for temperance. Why ESCO chose to show him as an old, fat man is beyond me.
