1924 Vintage photograph of young up and coming Heavyweight fighter Gene Tunney as he poses with his sparring partners before his next bout. Taken two years before he would strip Jack Dempsey of his title, this is from Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well. The condition and quality are both outstanding and this is the only example we have ever seen.
