The career of "The Greatest" boxer to ever live is captured in this multi-imaged montage. Ali's exploits in the ring are highlighted through a mixture of dates, photographs, and words in a stunning tableau. Below the pastiche of boxing, three unused tickets from the 1960 Olympics in Rome. One ticket each from the Opening Ceremony (3.5"X10.5"), the Boxing events of August 29th (3.5"X9.5") and the Closing Ceremony (3.5"X10.5"). It was these Olmypics that where Ali, as Cassius Clay, won Light Heavyweight gold. The "Photoramics" timeline measures 12"X24" and is matted, with the tickets, in a textured light brown. The entire display is secured in a braided 23"X43" mahogany frame with glass. It is ready to hang.
