From the historic World’s Heavyweight Championship bout between Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries held in Reno, Nevada on July 4, 1910, comes this full, unused ticket. The bout contained boxing as well as social and political ramifications and was considered one of the most important boxing matches in history. This is a very rare $25 ticket, which is a price higher than that of most other specimens in existence, and equates to $625 in today’s value. Its condition is a very nice EX to EX+ with the only flaw being a light toning due to age.
