Jackie Robinson: What Price Insolence
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/28/2011
Georia's favorite son (WL Young Stribling)out of Atlanta was a hot commodity in pugilistic circles back in 1925. Many within the fight game believed that he would one day wear the heavyweight boxing crown. Full page from Police Gazette Newspaper showing Stribling in fight mode. Would look exceptional within a frame. Short bio under photo. This is the full paper. Loaded with other sports celebrities of the day including Babe Ruth. Rips up and down the spine. Light folds in places throughout. Remarkably, the photo plate of Stribling is unaffected. Good/Vg
