Three handwritten signed letters from 1960 from a heavyweight boxer named Cliff Keorkle. The first is a two-page letter dated November 21, 1960 to Nat Loubet (The Ring magazine) in which Keorkle talks about his bout with Gino Bounivino, his graduation from the New York Institute of Criminology and having given information about a communist party worker (Neil Gallagher) to N.Y. Senator Jack Javits. The second is a one-page letter dated September 9, 1960 to Loubet in which Keorkle mentions enclosing photos for a story about him. The third is a one-page letter to Loubet dated December 13, 1960 in which Keorkle complains that he story about him hasn’t appeared in the magazine yet and asks when it will. Two original black and white photos of Keorkle, one 5″ x 8″ in boxing in boxing stance and attire and another little 2 1/2″ x 3 1/4″ in boxing stance from the knees up. A typed letter on U.S. Department of Justice letterhead dated Aug. 10, 1960 from William Hundley, Chief Organized Crime and Racketeering Section to Keorkle directing him to forward any evidence he has to the FBI in either New York City or Newark, N.J. and finally a typed and signed letter from James A. Farley to Keorkle dated January 13, 1960 in which he tells Keorkle he is turning over his letter to Mr. Foster, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI in New York City. Very good conditions
