Carson, this </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">pastel, ink and <span style="font-size: 13px;">gouache on <span style="font-size: 13px;">charcoal paper artwork is based on the famous 1954 Golden Gloves photograph and is tastefully framed and matted. Just below his feet, it reads <span style="font-size: 13px;">"Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr. won first fight at 12 years of age as a flyweight, beating Ronnie O'Keefe in Louisville, September 11, 1954." </span></span></span>The image area measures 25x39" and is framed and matted to 37x55" overall.
