The name Teddy Baldock is enshrined in the record books as Britain's youngest ever world champion. A powerful glory and tears story of an East End boxing idol who went from national hero to fallen star.

Born at Poplar on May 20th, 1908, boxing was in his blood, his grandfather having been a bare-knuckle fighter. Baldock's brilliant boxing skills and colourful style saw him fight in famous venues like Madison Square Gardens.

At 19, the Pride of Poplar defeated American Archie Bell at the Royal Albert Hall for the World bantamweight title, in one of the greatest bouts between boxing's little men.

He would never reach such heights again, but when he retired after a distinguished career of over 80 fights he remained a hero of the East End, long after his heyday in the ring.

Teddy's story is the stuff of legend; in his prime, his wealth and fame was such that he rubbed shoulders with dukes and earls but in 1971, when he died penniless in an Essex infirmary, he didn't even have his own pyjamas.

About the Author

Like so many West Ham supporters Brian Belton was born only five minutes walk from the club ('I heard 'em cheering in me cradle'). As a teenager Brian worked primarily to support his habit of following West Ham around England.

In his twenties the Mayflower Centre shanghaied him to work with young people in the Canning Town area. Brian was now a youth worker and eventually was persuaded/ bullied/ bribed into taking a professional qualification with the YMCA College in London.

He gained a degree at City University and then became a Senior Youth and Community worker in Islington, whilst gaining a Masters Degree at Essex. He has published over 50 books, mainly on football.

Fine, dry glitter in a puff spray bottle
Color: Glint Rainbow
This works well if, and only if, you know exactly what it is and if it'll work for your application. This glitter comes with no adhesive or stickiness in it. It is not like a glitter stick, or glitter makeup. It is dry glitter in a spray bottle. The spray pattern is very narrow, so if you want to spray it onto a piece of paper or you body, it will show up in a clump. It does not have an airy spray pattern. To use this, you need to add some stickiness to the surface you want it to stick to first. Something like glue on paper or some sort of sticky thing on your skin that won't sink in. If regular lotion sinks in, the glitter will just fall off. So petroleum jelly or something that sits on top works best. Also, if you want it spread out instead of in little clumps as it comes out of the spray bottle, you'll have to move it around manually. On some level, to be entirely honest, I'm not sure this application method is better than loose glitter. With loose glitter, at least I can manually sprinkle it and not get a giant blob like with the spray. Also, some little bits get loose with the spray, and loose glitter in a house is just asking for forever glitter. I'm deducting one star simply because the spray delivery mechanism isn't very useful, and can actually be a liability. Unlike some spray glitters with propellant and adhesive that are more like spray paint and have a more spray paint application profile. This manual puff method just doesn't work well with glitter.

Dry glitter, not glue
Color: Glint Rainbow
This is dry glitter, not glitter spray. Will need glue for it to stick but it’s very pretty.

Fine holographic sparkle with smooth and even application
Color: Glint Rainbow
I tested this glitter powder several times over about two weeks while using it on my hair and along the cheek area for festival style makeup looks. The shimmer particles are very fine, which helps create a smooth reflective effect rather than chunky glitter. The applicator releases a light dusting of powder, which makes it easier to control how much product is applied. I found that building it gradually works best, starting with a light layer and adding more for a stronger sparkle effect. The holographic finish reflects different tones depending on the lighting, shifting slightly between soft rainbow colors under brighter light. It looks subtle indoors but becomes more noticeable and reflective in direct lighting or outdoor settings. During wear, the glitter stayed in place for several hours with minimal fallout when applied lightly. I noticed that applying it over slightly set makeup or hair helped it adhere better and reduced loose particles. With its fine texture, controllable application, and noticeable sparkle under different lighting, it delivers a versatile glitter effect for creative makeup looks. The quantity of the spray was nice and it was durable under the sun too.

Glitter Bomb
Color: Glint Rainbow
It gets ALL over the place and doesn’t stick all that well. Neat idea but it doesn’t work the way I would hope.
