Gold life mask of Tor Johnson "The Super Swedish Angel"

More Gorgeous George including his wrestling boots

THE MUSEUM - 24 carat gold-plated "Georgie Pins", playing cards from the Gorgeous George Turkey ranch, personal correspondence, contracts, Christmas cards written but never mailed (Gorgeous passed away on Christmas day, 1963), plus many of his most flamboyant ring robes compile part of the vast personal collection gathered over the years for eventual display at Slammers Wrestling Gym®.

In addition to the extensive Gorgeous George Private Collection, other ring memorabilia noted in the Slammers Archives includes The Fabulous Moolah's diamond-encrusted eyeglasses, ring jacket and wrestling boots, "Classy" Freddy Blassie's baby blue wrestling boots and trunks, and Ivan Koloff's ring cape and wrestling boots. Add to items such as these 4'x6' color blowups of many ring favorites, thousands of stills, programs, vintage matches, videos, posters, and one of the highlights of the collection, the gold-leafed (original) life mask of "The Super Swedish Angel", wrestler & film actor Tor Johnson. Gallery quality black & white action stills by noted photographer Shirlie Montgomery, are cherished mementos from this vast treasure trove of wrestling's glorious past, all part of the "Slammers atmosphere".

Originally on display at the first Slammers location in Sun Valley, California, the entire museum has been carefully catalogued and secured at our Executive Headquarters in Studio City, California. Our respect for the Sport of Professional Wrestling runs high at Slammers Wrestling Gym®, the University of Professional Wrestling ("Slam U®"), and the Slammers Wrestling Federation®, where "the wrestling stars of tomorrow are wrestling today"!
