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.

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.

  • Episode 3, Dempsey Fight Bell, Reno, Nevada and New York City Tukufu Zuberi
    Episode 3, Dempsey Fight Bell, Reno, Nevada and New York City Tukufu Zuberi: Next, the bell that may have rung in a golden era in American sports. It's the Roaring 20s and America is increasingly infatuated with movie stars and celebrities. One sporting star soars onto the celebrity stage – Jack Dempsey, heavyweight boxing champion of the world. It is Dempsey who helps launch our national obsession with professional sports. And it all began with the clang of a bell. Now Guy Clifton of Reno, Nevada, believes he's come across the very bell that helped ring in the golden age of sports in America. Guy Clifton: A friend of mine said that, well, have you seen the Dempsey-Willard bell hanging down in Jake's Place? When I first saw it I thought, holy cow, could this really be real? Tukufu: I'm Tukufu Zuberi. I'm meeting up with Guy to see what's he got. Guy: Well, here it is. Tukufu: Alright. July 4 th , 1919, Toledo, Ohio. Jack Dempsey-Jess Willard. What do you know about that fight? Guy: Well, this is the fight when Jack Dempsey won the heavyweight championship of the world. Tukufu: Alright. So that would make this bell a pretty big deal. Guy: It sure would. Tukufu: Does the bell work? Guy: It does. [Clangs bell] Tukufu: Now, that sounds just like the bell when you're sitting at ringside, right? Guy: It sure does. Tukufu: Now what is your question for me? Guy: I want to know if it's really the bell from the Dempsey-Willard fight.

    6 "Saving the City's Reputation": Philadelphia's Struggle over Self-Identity, Sabbath-Breaking and Boxing in America's Sesquicentennial Year BruceJ. Evensen DePaul University Before his assassination at Buffalo's Pan-American Exposition in 1901, Presi- dent William McKinley observed that international fairs were the "timekeepers" of history because they captured a moment in time which chronicled "the world's advancement."' Between America's centennial and sesquicentennial years, the country staged thirteen major expositions with more than 100 million persons attending.2 T'he first and the last of these were held in Philadelphia, the great city of American independence, which self-consciously prided itself on being the ' moral custodian" of that independence. In twice celebrating the nation's birth, the city invited all people "to assemble at the most sacred spot on the American continent" to commemorate the most important event "since the beginning of the Christian era."3 If the Declaration of Independence was man's most important document, then Philadelphia was his most representative city. "All that this country has been, is, or will be has its fountainhead in Philadelphia," said the city's mayor as he prepared to greet the nation on the one hundred fiftieth anniversary of its founding.A Contemporaries considered the fifty years separating Philadelphia's 1876 and 1926 civic celebrations an often painful period in American life. Willa Cather thought it an era in which "the world broke in two" with a growing gulf separating familiar tradition and fretful modernity. An order that seemed comprehensible appeared to be disappearing and what George Santayana called "a new civiliza- tion" was taking its place.5 A veteran newspaper editor noted that "since the war the public mind has become highly excited.
