An excellent vintage signed and inscribed 8 x 10 photograph of Cassius Clay in a full-length boxing pose sparring with his brother at the Territorial Army Centre Gymnasium in White City, London, on 29th May 1963, ahead of his heavyweight fight against Henry Cooper on 18th June 1963. The press photograph bears the original printed caption lightly affixed to the verso which states, in part, 'Louisville's confident Cassius Clay, who says he will beat British heavyweight Henry Cooper in the fifth round of their fight at Wembley Stadium….lands a powerful right-hander on his brother, Rudolf Valentino Clay, during the former's first gymnasium training session…..'. Signed by Clay in blue fountain pen ink to a light area at the base of the image, 'To Peter from Cassius Clay', adding the words 'Next World Champ' in his hand beneath his signature. Vintage signed photographs of Clay of this quality are rare and highly desirable. A couple of very light, extremely minor corner creases, otherwise about EX Clay's first bout against Cooper took place at Wembley Stadium on 18th June 1963 and is particularly remembered for Cooper felling Clay in the fourth round with an upward angled version of his trademark left hook to the jaw. Despite suffering this set back Clay started the fifth round aggressively, attempting to make good his prediction of a fifth-round knockout and opened a severe cut under Cooper's eye. Clay hit Cooper with a succession of hard rights knocking out his gumshield and Cooper's corner threw in the towel. The referee stopped the contest and thus Clay defeated Cooper by a technical knockout.

Muhammad Ali Signed "Introducing Islam" Brochure, PSA/DNA Slabbed & Graded Mint 9 A brochure entitled "Introducing Islam," signed by world champion heavyweight boxer Muhammad Ali (1942-2016) as "Muhammad Ali" below the title on the front page. Encapsulated and PSA/DNA graded Mint 9. The brochure printed on white and pale blue paper was published as part of a series by the Institute of Islamic Information and Education (III & E Brochure Series No. 1), operating out of Chicago, Illinois. Near fine, the brochure measuring 3.5" x 8.5." The slab measures 5.5" x 12.5." Muhammad Ali converted to Sunni Islam while in his early 20s, under the guidance of spiritual mentor Elijah Muhammad, the leader of the Nation of Islam between 1934-1975. Ali's celebrity in the ring made him one of America's most well-known Muslims, and while initially the Nation of Islam disapproved of this association, they soon relented. Ali practiced Islam during and after his boxing career. He made two pilgrimages to Mecca in 1972 and 1988 and devoted much of his later life to charitable pursuits. He converted to Sufi Islam around 2005.

Muhammad Ali Handwritten Prompt Card Re: Race Relations, PSA/DNA Slabbed & Certified A prompt card entirely inscribed in the hand of Muhammad Ali (1942-2016), celebrated championship boxer, civil rights activist, artist, and philanthropist. The 8" x 5" blue-ruled index card is inscribed with 31 words in black felt tip marker, with five additional marks in blue sharpie. Encapsulated and PSA/DNA certified as authentic. A few fingerprint smudges and slightly blunted card edges and corners, mentioned only for accuracy. Else near fine. The slab measures 10" x 6.75" overall. In the fifteenth prompt card of an unknown speech, Muhammad Ali wrote in full: "--they want to keep us subject {15} / to themselves in a more / educational and scientific / way other than their fathers / did/, T,H,E,M, teaches us / that their fathers only used / the common--" While Ali is best remembered for his championship boxing career, he was also a man of many causes. Ali's conversion to Islam in the early 1960s informed his refusal to serve in the U.S. military following the mandatory Vietnam War draft. An increasingly visible symbol of pacifism, as well as the Civil Rights and Black Power movement, Ali, became a popular choice for college and university speaking engagements as well as rallies. This prompt card, entirely written in Ali's clear and fluid handwriting, was almost certainly used by him at one such event.

Muhammad Ali (1942-2016) Ali V Holmes, 1980 Colored pencil and crayon on paper Signed lower left 'Muhammad Ali' and dated 'Sept 80' Framed, with reproduction of photograph of Ali holding this painting to verso of frame This painting was done by Ali in New York on September 4, 1980, less than a month before his WBC Heavyweight Championship fight with Larry Holmes at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, October 2, 1980. Billed as 'The Last Hurrah'. Holmes won by technical knockout when the fight was stopped in the Tenth Round. Ali had appeared against medical advice, with his former doctor, Ferdie Pacheco, warning him against ever fighting again. Although the fight was not the direct cause of Ali's Parkinsons Disease, it is thought that the amount of blows he sustained during the fight compounded the development of the disease.
