1921 Photograph of the massive crowd at the fight between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier and showing the ring at a distance. Stamped on the back by George Grantham Bain, this image illustrates how massive these sporting events were in the days before radio and television. If you wanted to be a part of the action at all, you had to be there, no matter how far away! Despite a chip and small rip on the right border, the image presents well.
