Incredible sweeping photograph of the famed bout between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney which took place in Philadelphia in 1926 when the seemingly unbeatable Jack Dempsey lost his title! A stunning image in nice shape overall, this is crystal clear and really provides a fantastic look at the stadium that was required for all the fans to watch this bout. Issued by Underwood and Underwood, the photo was taken at night with the lights for the ring being the only illumination making for quite an artistic feel! This is the only photograph of it's kind of this bout we have ever seen.
