1-2) 1969 Job Corp issues picturing "George Foreman, 1968 Olympic Heavyweight Boxing Champion (two, 22x17" each). Nice condition; 3) 1975 "Foreman vs Five". This was part of the Foreman comeback after his loss in Zaire. Don King promoted the bout. Howard Cosell called the bout "a circus". Ali showed up at the fight and he and Foreman verbally sparred throughout the contest. At one point, in fact, Foreman actually threw a folding chair at Ali. On-site at Maple Leaf Gardens, 26x15.5". Light wear.
