Joe Louis' last knockout victory (1951) - the best we've seen...



Item # 696788

June 16, 1951

MINNEAPOLIS MORNING TRIBUNE, Minnesota, June 16, 1951

* Joe Louis vs. Lee Savold
* Heavyweight boxing fight
* Last win by way of knockout


Page 12 has perhaps the best coverage of the last knockout of Joe Louis' career we have ever seen. It contains multiple photos and detailed coverage. The opposing page also has a related photo as does the front page. Truly a great issue!
This was the Brown Bomber's last victory by knockout in his storied career.
Other news and period ads are found throughout.
Complete with 24 pages, a slightly rough left spine, but otherwise in very nice condition.
