Huge c. 1907 mounted cabinet photograph of Joe Gans as he squared off with his next proposed challenger, Packey McFarland. A massive piece of boxing history that might be the only example to have survived, this is being offered here for the first time ever, fresh from a prominent archive. The photo has some wear and a chip off the upper right which has been repaired. One of the largest vintage boxing cabinet photographs we have ever seen!
