Lot 52: Better Max Baer Boxing Photographs (10)
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
In 1939 Max Baer and Lou Nova fought to meet Joe Louis in the
heavyweight title fight. The legendary Baer made it eleven rounds
before the ref called a TKO and declared Nova the winner. These
stunning images tell the story. Two images from their rematch in 1941
are also included, including a hilarious gag pose after weight
in. Many of the photos have their original caption sheets
attached to the verso. The condition of the lot ranges from VG to MT,
with most NM/MT. Sized from 3x8" to 8x10".
