As a matter of fact, while we know in looking back that the speculative boom then was at least moribund, every sign pointed to its revival in March just as the speculative spree had picked up in March, 1925. Miami by now was famous, and the facilities for entertaining those drawn by her fame were greatly increased over the years when it simply was a small Florida town revolving around its bright yellow Florida East Coast depot. Although it no longer was considered proper to print the daily amounts of property transferred, as someone might begin to make odious comparisons, Tatum Brothers reported that their sales of $1,800,000 for the first six weeks of 1926 were well ahead of the same period of 1925. Alfred H. Wagg, who was a successful real estate operator in Palm Beach and West Palm Beach, moved to Miami and opened an office to sell Riviera Gardens, west of Coral Gables. Having set a world's record of 42,500,000 lines of advertising in 1925, 12,000,000 lines more than any newspaper ever had car- red in a year's time, The Miami Herald had the biggest advertis- ing month of its life in January, 1926, while February was not far behind. The boys may have been going down, but they were going down fighting, still putting the long green on the counter. -

Moore: Jack Dempsey in Tampa: Sports and Boosterism in the 1920s JACK DEMPSEY IN TAMPA: SPORTS AND BOOSTERISM IN THE 1920s by Jack Moore On Wednesday afternoon February 4, 1926, heavyweight champion of the world William Harrison “Jack” Dempsey fought seven rounds of exhibition matches with four opponents in an outdoor ring specially constructed on the property of real estate developer B.L. Hamner in what is now the Forest Hills section of Tampa. None of the estimated crowd of 10,000 paid a cent to see the famous conqueror of Jess Willard, Georges Carpentier, Luis Angel Firpo (“The Wild Bull of the Pampas”), and Tommy Gibbons demonstrate some of the skills and spectacular personal appeal that had made him one of the era’s greatest sports heroes. With the passage of time Dempsey would become an authentic legend, a sports immortal. Three other legendary sports’ heroes, Harold “Red” Grange, Jim Thorpe, and Babe Ruth also visited Tampa around the time of Dempsey’s appearance. -
