“…Lightweight Knocks Out Heavy Weight”
"There’s a young lad, 20 years old, big and strong, who came into the gym and put the boxing gloves on and challenged everyone there. Nobody offered to box him because he always knocked his opponents out in the first round and usually picked on the little fellows, but never would tryout with the fellows of his own weight.
Well I had seen this heavyweight box before and although I am a lightweight and a couple of years younger, I said to myself, 'I will try it, anyway.' Well, I put on the gloves and soon the battle was on. He rushed me but I stopped him with the left lead, and then gave him a right hook to the jaw and knocked him out. The knockout surprised everyone.” Joe Worlinski, 248 Broadway, Buffalo, N. Y.

“…Bigger Neck and Chest Muscles…”
“When I first started to study your course I could dip three times. Now I can easily dip 18 times. It’s a wonderful chest developer and my chest has expanded to the extent that I cannot keep buttons on my vest. The bridging has made my neck so large that I had to buy a 15½ shirt, when a 15 shirt was nearly too large for me before.” E. Ham, Hines Garage, Greenville, N.C.

“…Was Only Half Alive…”
“I have been studying your course and I’m finding I was only half alive before I began the study of boxing. The exercises are great from a physical point of view and I feel better in every sense of the world. I do not tire so easily.” J. Brand, Houston, Texas.

“…Knocked Down Two Local Hard Nuts…”

“…Gave Me Confidence To Thrash a 232 Pound Bully…”
“A few days ago I was attacked by a bully weighing 232 pounds. I only weigh 168 pounds. But I gave him the hammering of his life. I know I wouldn’t have had the nerve to face a bully like him without the knowledge you gave me – and your course would be cheap at four times the price.” Walter Fore, Lindale, Texas
“…Knocked Out Two Local Hard Guys…”
“Although I had previously considered myself quite a boxer, after studying your course I have found out that there was quite a bit to learn.

“…Each Hit, Guard, Feint and Block Are Easy To Master…“
When I first started I thought I’d never get anywhere…yet before I knew it, I was guarding and hitting correctly. I used to box with a friend…but now he says,” What’s the point?” I can’t hit YOU.” And it’s all due to the guards and ducks I learned from you.” S. Smith, Canterbury, Conn.
“…It’s The Secret of My Professional Success…”
“At the time of subscribing to your course I was entering the amateur ring. After studying the course I found that it helped me beyond expectations not only in my fights but in self-reliance and confidence. I’m now fighting professionally and can truthfully say that Marshall Stillman’s course has contributed more than anything else to my success. I would not be without it and refer to it very often. I have found it possible with diligent practice with your guard to hold my own against and keep well away from the blows of heavier men than myself.” G Monday, Machita, N.M.
“…16 Year Old Girl Knocks Out 2 Boys…”

“…Better Than an Instructor…”
“I think your course is the best that can be gotten for the money. I have been to some instructors who charged $25 for a few lessons which were soon forgotten. If you forget something from your course it’s so easy to refer back to the lessons again and practice them.” Burt Forbes, Cleveland, Ohio
“…Better Than a Personal Trainer…”
“I think your course is better than a trainer because it covers so many methods of offense and defense. It’s easily worth $500 for any man who wants to get by without getting beaten up and hold his own amongst men.” P.W. Williams, Virginia, Minn.
“…Beginner Boxer Too Fast For Experienced Giant…”
“I’ve just beaten up an experienced fighter weighing 250 pounds and standing over 6 feet tall who’d been making my life hell for years. Thing is I’m only 169 pounds and 5’10”. I had no knowledge of boxing at all before discovering these amazing techniques. I was too fast for him and gave him severe punishment to his face and body, before knocking him down.” Leroy Dorris, 330 Public Square, NY
