Description
Muhammad Ali SIGNED Boxing Broadside. 1972. Ali vs. George Chuvalo, Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver Canada, May 1st 1972. Poster measures 34x22'' and is mounted to cardboard. Some scattered staining throughout and tips of corners missing. From the estate of Bob Peterson who was sent to photograph the match in Vancouver by UPI. Peterson returned to airport that night to fly to NYC and was carrying the oversized poster on the plane. By chance, Ali was on his flight back to the US and so he introduced himself and explained he was covering the fight that night -- which Ali won -- and asked him if he would mind signing his poster. Poster inscribed 'To Bob from Muhaamad Ali Peace 1972'.
