Here is a recent find of mine that I thought I would share. It seems some of you may take an interest and liking to it.
This is an all original and authentic 1964 autographed picture with Muhammad Ali. Also included in the picture is Greg Eaton, a native of East Lansing, and the first African-American lobbyist in Michigan as well as a graduate of Michigan State University. Malcolm X is also in the picture.
The back says Greg Eaton, Cassius Clay, Malcom X, Feb - 1964. So this picture appears to have been taken in Miami before or around the time of the Sonny Liston fight. It appears they are in front of a location that was showing performances by Steve Revue Featuring Ruth Brown. It is from a collection that my relative had. He was a big boxing and sports fan. It is an 8 x 10. It appears to be a press or media photo taken by a professional photographer. I am not sure why Ali is carrying a cane.
Thanks for stopping by once again my friends. Take care. Surely our paths will cross again soon. :)
