Muhammad Ali grins broadly when meeting for the first time the Hollywood Hunk of the decade actor, Clint Walker (who is extremely desirable in Hollywood collecting circles), with his dear friend, football star turned actor Jim Brown looking on. Ali visited the set of "The Dirty Dozen" in August 1966 while in England for a title bout against British contender Brian London. This 35mm camera black and white negative captures a unique behind-the-scenes moment, thus, the definition of good candid photography. Also includes a matching vintage contact print, all in NRMT 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 Unpublished, they have not seen the light of day for five decades.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.
