LOOKING FOR MATERIALS ON TIGER KHAN FOR UPCOMING DOCUMENTARY:

This summer I will be doing a documentary on the life and death of Tiger Khan in conjunction with filmmaker Franco Frassetti who is currently working on the Bruno Sammartino documentary (details on Franco/Bruno film at: www.intheringofhonor.com) Tiger’s film will be shot this summer in the NY/NJ area.

We will also be doing a Tiger Khan Memorial card in September in NJ with details forthcoming which would be an ideal scenario for his friends to reunite and reminisce about Tiger and have it captured on film.

Right now we are looking for the following to include in the film:

• video footage of Tiger in and out of the ring including promos
• photos of Tiger
• Memorabilia/programs/etc. with Tiger
• wrestlers and friends willing to be interviewed on film in NY/NJ area
• wrestlers and friends not able to come to NY/NJ area who would be willing to submit videotaped interviews on their relationship with Tiger for film

I thank you in advance for your involvement and support. All shooting dates and info on Memorial Card TBA shortly.
