CASSIUS CLAY. PROBABLY THE VERY FIRST COLLECTOR'S PICTURE OF AMERICAN BOXER CASSIUS CLAY AS AN 18-YEAR-OLD AFTER WINNING OLYMPIC GOLD AT THE 1960 ROME OLYMPICS IN THE HOME JOURNAL'S COLLECTOR'S ALBUM.

Cassius Clay, American boxer (later Muhammad Ali), (1942-2016). Collectible picture from Hemmets Journal's 1960 collector's album when the young boxer won Olympic gold in light heavyweight at the Olympics in Rome. Likely the very first ever collector's picture of the 18-year-old boxer. The picture has number 23 in the collector's album that was issued. Here is the sheet with Cassius Clay extracted from the album.
Cassius Clay is joined by John Ljunggren, Wilma Rudolph and Harald Nielsen. The image measures 70 mm. x. 45 mm. + white margins. Holed t. v. to fit into the album without it touching the portraits. Printed text on the back.
