Description
Photograph caption dated July 14, 1956 reads, "Dick Goldstein. Legion underdog." Photograph article partially reads, "California Middleweight Titlist Neal Rivers will risk prestige, rather than his title against Dick Goldstein in tonight's 10 round main event at Hollywood Legion Stadium...Goldstein, 26-year-old Polish refugee, has been a busy mittster this year. His record shows victories over Ray Perez, Charlie Salas and Baby Franco; three draws with Jimmy Martinez and a close decision loss to top-rated Vince Martinez. All these bouts were in Arizona."
