1964 Famous photograph of Muhammad Ali, the greatest boxer in the world, as he met with the Beatles before their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. He was training to fight Sonny Liston and did not care much for the distraction, and the band didn't like him much either, but the resulting photos have become iconic! Taken by photographer Harry Benson, the photo session is one of the greatest in music history with this being one of the only examples off the original negative we have ever seen. Developed on Kodak paper with c. 1980's watermarks on the back, this is a 10/10!
