Jack Johnson/Jim Jeffries Post Card
1910. Post Cards. Wonderful 1910 pictorial postcard promoting the "Fight of the Century", the July 4th, 1910 showdown in Revo, Nevada between "current" heavyweight champion of the world Jack Johnson and the "retired" heavyweight champion of the world Jim Jeffries. Framed in its period, decorative silver, the postcard is divided evenly down the middle and shows Jim Jeffries in his fighting stance on the left and Jack Johnson in his fighting stance on the right. Beneath these photos, in bold titling, reads the dramatic headline "The Light and The Dark Side of a National Question". The postcard measures its standard 3 1/2" wide x 5 1/2" tall and is crisp and clean in its white backdrop, with one minor crease along the front cover's upper right edge. Very Good +. Item #22012
