Here are autographs from American and British royalty - three all told - alongside a nifty black-and-white magazine photo of a 21-year-old Cassius Clay. A posed-action shot of Cassius Marcellus Clay has an Elizabeth Taylor fine, blue ballpoint autograph on one side and Richard Burton on the other, the latter directly beneath a Muhammad Ali signature. The photograph - excellent condition betrayed only by four visible but unobtrusive folds, is almost certainly mentions Clay's weight as being 14stone and 11 lbs. The British used to aggravate us by using stone as a unit for measuring weight before they decided years later to upgrade and aggravate us by using the metric system. The piece is nicely matted and framed to an overall 10-by-13-inch dimension.

Comes with an LOA from the Dundee Family.
