The 1973 "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match was supposed to be a publicity stunt for television, but it has become one of the seminal events of the seventies. While we have seen plenty of images of both Bobby Riggs and Billy Jean-King, this is only the second image from the actual match we have ever seen, and it is a unique new discovery that has never been seen before. King is wearing her classic outfit from the event and looks excited and happy to be fighting for women's rights! A powerful piece of sports history in great shape that is being offered here for the first time ever! Photo was taken by famous photographer Oscar Abolafia and comes from his estate. This is a double weight masterpiece of photography that is from one of the best to do it during the 1960's-1970's. Abolafia was published in countless magazines and had shows of his works throughout the World!
