Spinksy takes tremendous pleasure and feels honoured by being able to bring you the writings of the 'Big Fella' – Jack Curtis.
Jack is regarded as one of the most knowledgeable fanciers ever to put pen to paper and was for many years the number one 'Eyesign' scribe for any pigeon journal within the British Isles. Copyright to these articles belongs to Jack Curtis – any publication within journals of any description must carry credit to the writer. Internet use of these articles must be by direct-to-page link or boglinmarsh.com only.
Jack will be submitting several articles to Boglin Marsh regarding the most significant fanciers to grace the British pigeon racing sport and its history.
'The Big Fella' - Jack Curtis Chronicles | ||
|---|---|---|
Note from Spinksy – This is a superb modern-day story with some wonderful photos of top-performance racing pigeons, which will all be reproduced on the net in due course --- watch this space! It took a great deal of debate between Jack and myself to decide whom we should feature within these 'Chronicles' as fanciers who should go down into the history of the modern British sport. Over the next few weeks we will be presenting, in our joint estimation, the ultimate best – these fanciers are icons and will stand shoulder to shoulder with the best in the world. It didn't take any time to make our minds up about the first two feature fanciers. | ||
