Two more from Impact Productions.  These were only available in reel-to-reel films (no sound).

Remember buying ACCORD AND WILDCATS in a small shopping Mall in St, Lois metro area.  The looks were unusual. Thanks for the posts.  Ever find any pics of Toni Kessering?  All I've ever found area old mud wrestling.  Not the best.

This is without a doubt the best thread ever on this board.  I remember being 13 and getting my mum to buy me Wrestling Eye each month when it came out for the female fighting adverts.  Please keep posting as I genuinely appreciate you sharing your collection of material.

A big thanks to all of you who comment that you appreciate seeing this old material.  As I wrote earlier, I'd do a better job at presenting this if I have more time and was better organized.  Anyway, before I move on with some early Triumph Studios material, I thought that I'd get some of my Lady Hawke material off of my list of stuff to post.  If you like "everyday" type women and in many cases heavyset women, you'd enjoy Lady Hawke.  The matches are quite good and I am posting some early stuff from this company.  I forgot to mark the year on my file but this is likely mid to late 80s as these are video tapes, not reel-to-reels.  I'm posting 2 attachments per post and I have 9 pics to show you.

Two more from Lady Hawke, including a sample colour pic that they provided.  It was common in the 70s and 80s for companies to send pictures taken from a camera, as if you'd have taken the picture yourself.

Two more from Lady Hawke...  I should point out that Lady Hawke's owner was Brandy and she often wrestled against her daughter Dawn, another BBW.  There is one pic of them below.

This is the last Lady Hawke pic, for now anyway (depends what else I find in my boxes...).  As I mentioned above, these are heavier women.  In the tournament below, the lightest fighter weighs 137 lb. and the heaviest is 175 lb.  The average weight is in the 155 lb. range.

This is a drawing by Saja. Anyone know what story it's from?

Thanks for those pages from A.I.A.the fans bible in the late 70's and 80's.I have mentioned many times in forums and on my blog how important a part of a fans life it was in those days before the internet.

Several companies sold very good cartoons as well.  CSB (California Supreme - Bellstone) was one of them.  I can't recall who published the third attachment below.

In the third attachment the drawing on the bottom left is by a guy who was known as TG of Lincs, one of several pics in a story he did about a female prize fight in a 19th century village. TG did quite a bit of work for Amazons in Action, including its earlier version, i.e. before the mags name was changed to AiA. Can't offhand remember the mags earlier title.

Look similar to J.M. Rolen's work.  Especially the hair.  Remember them well.  The stories were great too.  And the occasional nude match.  Loved those mags.

Can't remember what mag I scanned these from, but good pictures of what looks like a one-sided fight.
