Yes! I thought I had the right one. My father (Mel Vreeland) got a Gold Metal in 1922 presented to him by the Amatuer Boxing Association. He was District Champion of New Jersey in 1922. He spared (if that's the right term) with Jack Dempsey at training in Hoboken/Jersey City/Bayonne area.
I'd love to have a picture of that poster. From my mother's side, Katie Dempsey married my gggrandfather, Richard Patey.
I will include it with the booklet I'm making up on the Patey family.
My address is 302 Jackson Street, Roanoke Rapids, NC 27870
I'll be glad to pay for any costs.
Joan
