MUHAMMAD ALI. 1942-2016.
Adams, Harry. 1918-1988, Press Photographer. [Muhammad Ali in Los Angeles.] Photographs dated on verso, June 24 1965 - September 1973. Nine press photographs of Muhammad Ali visiting Los Angeles, each 200 x 250 mm. All but one with Harry Adam's credit photo stamp and date below, also annotated in another hand with the people pictured in the image.
A fine selection of photographs of the great boxer, Muhammad Ali, mostly on publicity trips to Los Angeles on August 1964 (1), June 1965 (5), and September 1973 (2). They include one shot of his fight against Ken Norton at the Forum, Inglewood, but most show him socializing in the company of the photographers family, his lawyer, first wife, and Major Tom Bradly at a football game. Ali never shied away from publicity, and was very photogenic.
