Description

Two items: a vintage glossy 3.5 x 5.5 photo of Brown in his Everlast gear, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To Mr. & Mrs. Ken Browne, May you be successful always, Joe Brown, 5/15/58"; and an ALS, one page, 8.5 x 11, Texas Boxing Enterprises letterhead, May 15, [1958], in part: "Glad to know you and your wife enjoyed watching my fight with Ralph. It's been a long uphill battle but I think I've finally proven myself… at least everybody tells me so and that is good enough for me. It is good to know that there is someone somewhere who has a personal interest in you." In very good to fine condition, with creasing, tears, and chips to the letter, and surface impressions to the photo from typed notations on the back. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
