Absolutely stunning and justly famous photograph of "The Sultan of Swat" carefully selecting his bat; his presence and keen focus are abundantly evident. An especially bold and exuberant signature completes the package, with an inscription "To John Aloudi" all in black fountain pen. The 9" x 7 1/2" photo rates a 9/10, with the signature scoring 8/10. The photo is mounted on board and has chipping on the left edge, but overall is EX. A Letter of Authenticity is included.
