A significant, one page typed letter from Jack Johnson on which he has boldly signed in fountain pen ink. This letter is printed on the illustrated letterhead for the World Heavyweight Championship fight between Johnson and Frank Moran which was to take place in Paris, France in 1914. Both fighters are pictured on this letterhead, which presents well and is in excellent condition with only the normal folds. Letters from Jack Johnson are quite rare and one in this condition, complete with his image, could possibly be a one-of-a-kind.
