One of the nicest specimens we have seen 8.25x11.25". From the iconic "Rumble in the Jungle" when Ali shocked the world. Ali came into the fight as a heavy underdog. His refusal to serve in the United States military had caused him to be stripped of his World Heavyweight Title. Years later, he was on the comeback trail. Ali was 32 years old against Foreman at age 25. Ali regained his World Heavyweight Championship when he knocked out Foreman in the 8th. round. Program is 16 pages and is written entirely in French and reads, "Championnat Du Monde Des Poids Lourds," which in English means "Heavyweight Championship of the World." Program ages feature photos of the fighters, statistics, and even the rules of boxing. NM.
