Original c. 1925 photograph of Joe "The Barbados Demon" Walcott a early black champion of previous generation as he appears to offer words of wisdom to the next generation of black fighters (Larry Johnson). An incredible image in great shape overall, this might be the only example of this photo that exists, making it an exciting new discovery from one of the most obscure fighters of his generation.
