HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, May 5, 1860 

* Famous boxing match print
* John Heenan vs. Thomas Sayers
* MISSING THE TWO FRONT LEAFS ***

The prime feature of this issue would have to be the great doublepage centerfold print captioned: "Bloody, Brutal, and Blackguard Prize-Fight In England, Between Heenan and Sayers, On April 17, 1860" which shows hundreds of spectators. This historic boxing match is considered the very first world boxing championship. It is a terrific boxing print (see). Page 2 has a related article titled: "The Brutal Prize-Fight" and takes close to half of the page reporting the details of the match.
A few small holes along the center of this sewn-in centerfold, otherwise quite nice.
Twelve of the 16 pages are present, missing the front two leafs (pages 1-4), still nice for display as such.
