ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $500.00
Winning Bid: $732.05
Price Realized: $874.80
Auction Date:11/30/2007 9:00 PM EST

A rare site poster, featuring images of Ali and Cooper, for their fight held at Arsenal Stadium in London on May 21, 1966. The fight, a rematch, saw Ali victorious with a TKO in the 6th round. The poster has incredibly vibrant neon red, neon yellow and blue and black ink on cardboard. Poster measures approx. 14 x 21" and is framed and matted to 19 x 29.5". The original center fold is visible with some wear and there is a 2" tear on the right edge. It is easy to overlook these minor flaws, however, as the remarkable graphics really pack a punch on this fine poster. VG+
