Joe Frazier Signed Ash Tray vs. Muhammad Ali 1971 Boxing Match Souvenir – COA JSA

Description

On March 8, 1971 Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali fought for the first time in Madison Square Garden in New York. Both were undefeated. Both were considered champions, Ali because he had never lost his title in the ring, Frazier because he had beaten just about everyone else and had established himself champion in Ali’s absence from the ring. An epic battle in which Joe Frazier emerged victorious winning a 15 round decision and knocking Ali down in the process. It was probably Joe Frazier’s finest hour.

Presented is an original glass souvenir ashtray from this 1971 main boxing event. It showcases both fighters images on each side ready to fight at Madison Square Garden. Bold yellow  poster style color and print and clear images. The highlight was that it was autographed by Joe Frazier near his image in black felt tip (“9”).
