Made by AG Spalding & Bros, 1951

Leamington has a rich sporting history and one of its most famous sports stars is the boxer Randolph Turpin. Over the years we have built a strong collection that tells the story of his career. Because boxing and Randolph Turpin are popular with collectors, items tend to be sold at auction. Because our budgets are small, we are often outbid. Therefore, there was great excitement when we were successful in our bid to buy these boxing gloves. They were worn by Turpin when preparing for his World Middleweight title fight with Sugar Ray Robinson in 1951.
