WCCW Memorabilia:
WCCW SUPERSTARS ON THE COVER OF...

Pro Wrestling Illustrated Weekly issues from 1990-91, with front page stories on Kerry Von Erich in the WWE [first and second rows] and the sad news of Chris Von Erich's suicide [bottom].

Saga of the Von Erich Warriors, published by Sage Productions of Tyler, TX in 1989. Click here to read the 24-page comic in its entirety.

 

Although not WCCW memorabilia per se, When the News Went Live: Dallas 1963 is of interest to fans as it includes contributions from former World Class announcer Bill Mercer [standing at far right in cover photo]. The book is a compelling account of the experiences of Mercer and three other reporters from then-CBS affiliate KRLD-TV (now Fox affiliate KDFW) in Dallas as they covered the shootings of President John F. Kennedy and his alleged assassin Lee Harvey Oswald.  In September 2007, Mercer's Play by Play: Tales from a Sports Broadcasting Insider, a memoir of his career (including his stint as WCCW commentator as well as his earlier work in pro wrestling), was published.
