The boys are back in town; London town, that is, for the Brian London fight. Actually the fight was held in Blackpool a seaside resort in Lancashire, England. Jim Brown was in Britain filming "The Dirty Dozen," which turned out to be a blockbuster of a film for that time. Also is the Nation of Islam and Ali's Manager, Herbert Muhammad. This lot consists of two strips of three and two consecutive 2.25" medium format black and white negatives with the vintage matching contact strips measuring 2.5x7.5" and 2.5x6", 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 Unpublished, they have not seen the light of day for five decades.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.
