This was the first tangle between the two legendary fighters, and it resulted in the first-ever defeat for the WBC Champion Leonard. For such an historic fight comes a poster equal to the challenge: pristine and virtually unmolested heavy cardboard full-color masterpiece is 24-by-36 inches, with brilliant color photos of Leonard and Duran elegantly showcased on a powder-blue backdrop accented with bold black and orange imprints. Poster was obviously well-preserved over the intervening three-plus decades; it presents Nr-Mt, with only the tiniest hint of a disturbance near the right middle. Simply put, an important historical artifact that has been maintained in a condition worthy of its stature.
Comes with a Letter of Authenticity from the Dundee Family.
