A Folded Special Poster (measures 23" x 34 1/4" [58 x 87 cm]) (Learn More)

George Foreman VS. Muhammad Ali, the 1974 sport boxing event ("Exclusive theatre telecast"; "The greatest heavyweight championship battle of all time"; "Live from Africa on Big Screen Closed Circuit TV"; "World Heavyweight Championship"; "Direct from Kinshasa, Zaire - Tuesday, September 24"; "15 rounds"; "No home TV or radio broadcast") promoting a fight between George Foreman ("World Heavyweight Champion") and Muhammad Ali ("Former World Heavyweight Champion"). The fight was originally to take place on September 24th but was moved to October 30th. This is the legendary fight where Ali used his "rope-a-dope" to win back the Championship from the much younger Foreman. It has been called "arguably the greatest sporting event of the 20th century".

Artist: LeRoy Neiman

Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare special poster promoting the closed-circuit theatrical showing of this legendary fight in 1974! We have only auctioned one example of this poster before and it sold for $360! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. The poster has pinholes around the edges (some are torn or enlarged due to rough removal) and general fold and border wear. It has slight discoloration scattered in some areas (not very noticeable on the front except in the white areas at bottom). There are several creases and scuffs scattered throughout. After linenbacking with some proper restoration the very rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration and see our super-sized image before bidding on it.
