The rematch between Cassius Clay and Sonny Liston on May 25, 1965, was actually six months late. As this framed handbill declares, it was originally slated for November 18, 1964, at Boston Garden, but due to Clay's hernia, it was pushed back and moved to Lewiston, Maine, with Clay having changed his name to Muhammad Ali by then, making this handbill more of a collector's item. Measuring 12.75" x 16.25" in its frame, the poster has a tiny bit of staining and the year 1964 written in, but otherwise is EX in appearance.
