Muhammad Ali had an agility, a mobility and speed that hadn’t really been seen before in heavyweight boxing. He had a lightning-quick, tap-dancing style that made him stand out from his contemporaries, and this is a unique image of just his feet in motion. Negative is a 35mm black and white format and comes with a vintage contact print, in NM-MT condition. The original negatives and images in this collection are by the personal photographer of Ali's manager Herbert Muhammad. Unpublished, they have not seen the light of day for five decades. Recently discovered, they come with the photographer’s rights. All of the negs/transparencies are unique, “Type I” images that can be used to make prints and products of the finest quality and huge scale.
