Featured is a framed photograph of the legendary boxer and sports icon Muhammad Ali. Born Cassius Clay, Ali would become a pioneer in the sport of boxing during the 1960’s and 1970’s. Known for his brash nature, and his natural attraction to the spotlight, Ali would self promote his fights by talking trash about his opponents to the press and media. Using a style that utilized baiting, footwork, and effective counter striking, Ali would back up his trash talk in the squared circle, and would guarantee fireworks to anyone privileged enough to have witnessed his greatness. This photograph is matted and framed to the dimensions of 15 x 15. The photograph is black and white and features Ali playing a piano, staring back at the viewer. He has signed his name in gold ink on the blank area of the picture. This item has been authenticated by Steve Grad of Beckett Authentication and comes with a LOA (A03292).
