Shadow Boxers is a celebration of arguably the last great era of club boxing in New York. The world of real-life Rockys, a hard masculine world where any man had a chance to fight his way to fame, fortune and glory. In the late 1970s and early `80s John Cole spent over five years in New York's and New Jersey's seedy gyms and boxing venues, documenting characters with bashed-in noses and unshakeable dreams, an era that no longer exists but which Cole's photographs capture for posterity.Binding: Hardback
