Billy Corgan Purchases Wrestling Tape Library
New TNA creative member Billy Corgan recently noted that he had purchased a wrestling tape library, and detailed the contents in several tweets (collected below):
“One thing I’ve yet to reveal, until now, is that I’d recently purchased the wrestling archives of the great, Chicago promoter Bob Luce… Amongst Mr. Luce’s collection were 9000 photos from 1955-1961, with many featuring Verne Gagne both in and out of the ring, and at home. So someday soon I hope to put together a book and possibly a website to share these fantastic images of so many legends like Mr. Gagne. Plus: The Sheikh, Cholak, Crusher, Dick the Bruiser, Snyder, Angelo Poffo, the Koloffs, and so many, many more, in their absolute prime.”
