Description
Photograph of the exterior view of Naud Junction Arena used for boxing, ca.1910. Utility poles line the streets. "The Naud Junction Arena was erected by noted California pioneer boxing promoter Tom McCarey. Many important boxing contests were held at Naud Junction, under McCarey supervision, in the mid- and late 1900s -- until the Vernon Arena was erected. Nine world championship contests were held at Naud Junction, near the confluence of Main Street, Alhambra Avenue and Macy Street." -- The BAWLI Papers (Boxing As We Liked It), edited by J. Michael Kenyon, issue number 87, May 24, 1999.
