A quick Google search turns up an artwork, by Kevin Sinnott?

Hello
Thanks for the link; I to found the same image and as nice as it is if possible I would prefer a photo of him as a boxer.
Kind Regards

I think that your chances of finding a photo are very slim indeed!

Even BoxRec, "Boxing's Official Record Keeper", don't have a photo of him?

I presume you have seen the thread on Garw Valley Heritage Society forum?
http://www.garwheritage.co.uk/wordpress/?p=2450

It states there that they don't have a photo of Bunny as a boxer, but do have a photo of him as Captain of his rugby team.
