The photo is set behind a Lucite casing with a vintage, original ticket for the Heavyweight Championship fight between Marciano and Jersey Joe Walcott scheduled for April 10, 1953 at Chicago Stadium. The bout was postponed until May 15th because Marciano injured himself. Marciano knocked out Walcott in the first round. The photo and ticket are mounted to a 11 x 9.5 x 1 heavy wooden frame. In fine condition, with scattered light creasing, a small circular area of discoloration, a bit of surface loss to two letters in the inscription. COA Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
