A tremendous early boxing clay souvenir, this is from a classic 1887 fight that never occurred, as the great John L. Sullivan ballooned to 245 pounds and never got this elusive bout with the noteworthy Champion of England, Jem Smith. It measures 5" in length with interesting hand-painted yellow stem, and is in EX+ condition.
