ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
The first and most important boxing book happens to also be the most desirable, valuable and the rarest. This scrumptious tome opens to an “Elegant Engraved Portrait of the Champion Cribb.” Insides exhibit some foxing but is overall very good. One of only three or four copies known to exist, only two have come up for sale in the last 20 years.
