EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the intense gaze and formidable presence of Ted Kid Lewis, the British-born World Welterweight Champion from 1915 to 1919. Born in 1894 as Gershon Mendeloff in the East End of London, Lewis earned his nickname, "The Aldgate Sphinx," for his enigmatic demeanor and unyielding determination in the ring. Dressed in a heavy vest and world championship belt, Lewis exudes an air of toughness and resilience, his biceps bulging with the power of a seasoned boxer. The year is 1916, and the historical significance of this image lies in the fact that Lewis held the title for an impressive four-year stretch during a time when boxing was a popular and often brutal sport. Lewis' boxing career began in the early 1910s, and he quickly rose through the ranks with his formidable fighting style and unyielding spirit. He defended his title against some of the best welterweights of the era, including Freddie Welsh and Jimmy Wilde. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of boxing and the indomitable spirit of its champions. It is a reminder of a time when the sport was raw, visceral, and unapologetically tough, and when champions like Ted Kid Lewis ruled the ring with their strength, determination, and unwavering resolve.
