Here's an intriguing letter from April 12 of 1963, just seven months after Floyd Patterson lost his heavyweight title to Sonny Liston. The Olympic Gold Medalist had loaned this sports production company $125,000. It is signed by Roy M. Cohn, the famed lawyer who defended Senator Joseph McCarthy and who died of AIDS in 1986.
