Large 1939 silver gelatin photograph from the Max Baer v. Lou Nova fight at Yankee Stadium. Baer was still clawing his way back to the top after losing the Heavyweight Championship to Jimmy Braddock five years earlier while Nova was a huge up and comer. Nova would win the bout and beat Baer into a pulp, essentially ending his career in the ring! Issued by the International Nes and stamped on the back with a large paper caption as well, the image presents nice with pinholes and some wear at the corners from editorial use.
