1947 D Cummings & Son "Famous Fighters" John Henry Lewis. Stain as reverse as pictured. Boxing Hall of Fame inducted 1994.

On January 25, 1939, Lewis attempted to become the first Light Heavyweight champion in boxing history to go up in weight and conquer the World Heavyweight championship, but lost to reigning champion Joe Louis, in a knockout 2:29 into the first round in New York's Madison Square Garden. John Henry was down three times in less than three minutes from the lightning-fast blows of the reigning heavyweight champion. It was the only loss by knockout in Lewis's career, though his most memorable by many boxing fans.

PayPal friends/family. Shipping is $1 in a plain white envelope. In the event the envelope is lost in the mail, I’ll refund 1/2 the purchase amount to the buyer. This just seems fair to me. I can guarantee I will drop the envelope in the mail. Rather than mail a plain white envelope at buyers risk, we can share the risk. I combine shipping.
