ADDENDUM; TITLE HAS CHANGED. ONLY ONE OF THE PIECES IS VINTAGE. THE OTHER IS AN OLDER SECONDARY COPY. PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY.

1) Magnificent crystal clear 16" by 20" circa 1900 photo of famed Welterweight and Middleweight Champion Tommy Ryan who fought between 1887 and 1907. Ryan was the World Welterweight Champion from 1894 through 1898 and the World Middleweight Champion from 1898 through 1907. Photo itself is in fantastic condition with a couple of very small tears/cuts at the picture edges and no other visible flaws. However the black cardboard backing it is attached to has a couple of tears and two corners missing.

2) 19 1/2" by 23" sepia tone picture of two boxers shaking hands before a fight. Older secondary copy has some wear at edges and tip of one corner missing.

Includes Letter of Authenticity from the Helms Athletic Foundation/LA84 Collection.
