Troy Kinunen BIO:
Troy Kinunen is considered one of the foremost experts on Muhammad Ail Memorabilia as he amassed one of the (if not THE) largest Muhammad Ali Collection in the world over a 35 year period. This is one of the prized pieces from his famed Collection.

Note: This striking deep red background version is a particularly RARE Fight poster for thier first 1971 battle, which we have never seen in our 40 years collecting.
Side Note: In 1988 I really wanted a Muhammad Ali photo signed with one of this legendary inscriptions , like this photo has. Mr Ali was more than generous as he added a terrific inscription to me and drew a Heart after he signed “ To Kevin, Love Muhammad Ali”. He even threw in about five SIGNED Muslim Pamphlets. Of course I still have that iconic signed photo.
