Only remember 2 in London, one was a blizzard in the 60s,the other when I was a milkman in 78?

New York?

These pictures show the first public exhibition of wax bullet dueling in America. The duels in question took place at Carnegie Hall in New York, with participants drawn from the Carnegie Sword and Pistol Club.
