This is a rare fight film poster from the 1935 heavyweight contest between former Champion Max Baer and rising prospect Joe Louis. The two met at the Yankee Stadium on September 24th 1935. Louis KO'd Baer in the fourth round. Three months prior to fighting Louis - and in one of the biggest upsets in boxing history - Baer had lost the World Heavyweight Championship to James J. Braddock via a 15 round decision. In his autobiography Joe Louis: My Life, Louis later claimed the win against Baer was the best performance of his career.
The 14" x 22" poster is printed on cardboard stock and remains in excellent shape. There is some minor foxing to the border area. Vivid color and arresting imagery of the two fighters.
