1932 Rare photograph showing the melee in the ring after the announcement had been made that Jack Sharkey had beaten the champion Max Schmeling by decision. A controversial moment in boxing history, the image shows Max being a good sport and congratulating the new champion with editorial marks of "A" and "B" over the figures of the two fighters. Issued by Acme and with a stamp and newspaper article on the back as well. A cool piece of boxing history.
