This is a Second World War era photo signed by Jack Dempsey in blue ink. These photos were issued to cadets upon completion of their course in "Physical Fitness" with the Coast Guard at Manhattan Beach. The image used was an old Apeda studio photograph from Dempsey's fighting days. There is an additional autograph in an unknown hand. In good condition with creasing and three tears - two to the right edge and one under Dempsey's elbow. 

During WWII Dempsey joined the New York State Guard and was given a commission as a first lieutenant, later resigning that commission to accept a role as a lieutenant in the Coast Guard Reserve. Dempsey reported for duty in June 1942 at Coast Guard Training Station, Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn, New York where he was assigned as "Director of Physical Education."
