1927 Horizontal action photo of the famed "Long Count Fight" between Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey. Taken from Soldier Field and close to the action, we see Gene Tunney's hand raised in victory while Jack Dempsey is seen facing him, gracious in defeat. One of the clear and more concise action photos from this bout we have ever seen, it was issued by the International News and remains here in fine condition overall with a corner chip being the only flaw.
