Amazing Classic Wrestling Newspaper Advertisements and Clippings

Description: BOOK DESCRIPTION My name is Ryan, and I grew up in the Houston, Texas area in the 80s. I used to love Sunday morning 'Mid-South Wresting' on the TV on the weekends.This book is full of old-school 1970s and 1980s newspaper advertisements and clippings from the World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment, (WWF/WWE), National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), Mid-South Wrestling (MSW), Georgia Championship Wrestling (GCW), Continental Wrestling Association (CWA), World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW), American Championship Wrestling (ACW), Universal Wrestling Federation (UWF), Stampede Wrestling, and many more.I used to look forward to getting my parent's newspaper and looking through the sports section for these wrestling advertisements and clippings. I would get so excited when I would see certain wrestlers were coming to the Sam Houston Coliseum in downtown Houston. I didn’t always go to the events, but it was always cool to know my wrestling heroes were coming into town. When visiting my grandparents in Alexandria, Louisiana, I would also open the newspaper there, looking for these clippings and wrestling articles. I filed many of them away in a scrapbook that I used to have, but it has all been lost over the years. However, with the internet, I've been able to not only get clippings from Houston but also able to find them from all over the country. That is what is in this book. It's basically a scrapbook with a lot of cool old-school wrestling clippings. It's great for fans of wrestling history and even wrestling historians.I’ve acquired these images from different places over the years. Most were taken from newspapers.com, but I was also able to get a ton of these clippings from newsgroups, Twitter, random blogs, etc. I love the nostalgia of it all, and it brings back so many good memories.I imagine this book being an interesting coffee table reader or a conversation starter for old-school professional wrestling fans. If this book sells enough copies, I have enough clippings for a Volume 2 and would be happy to create that. I have some other ideas for future books as well. It all depends on how this goes.A ton of hours have gone into curating these clippings, so hopefully, you find all of this as entertaining and nostalgic as I do. I’d love to know what you think.
