Auction History Result 2j0107 MUHAMMAD ALI signed 4x9 brochure '80s on the cover of an Introducing Islam brochure! Date Sold 11/15/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed Brochure (measures 3 1/2" x 8 1/2" when folded; measures 8 1/2" x 11" unfolded, but is folded to create 8 "pages") (Learn More) Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr. and nicknamed "The Greatest") was the most famous boxer from the 1960s to the 1980s (in 1999, he was named the most famous sports celebrity of the entire 20th century). Ali is the first and only three-time lineal World Heavyweight Champion. Some of his movies include: Freedom Road, The Greatest, and When We Were Kings. He was as famous for his activities outside the ring, including his refusal to serve in Vietnam (he was a "conscientious objector"), his conversion to being Muslim, and his long devotion to that faith, and his political activism! He passed away in 2016 at the age of 74. We will not see his like again! Important Added Info: Note that this item (which is a brochure from "The Institute of Islamic Information and Education", titled "Introducing ISLAM") has been personally autographed (signed) by Muhammad Ali! There is a very interesting story about how our consignor obtained this autograph. He was at a sports show where Ali appeared and was signing photos for $125 per signature. But he would also sign one of these brochures and give it free with the photo, because he wanted to get the information from the brochure read! Our consignor obtained this in person, but does not have a certificate of authenticity. We have provided images of the front and back pages of the brochure. Note that we have also included an image of Ali signing a photo for our consignor's son-in-law. As detailed above, Ali signed the brochure that we are offering in this auction at the same event (note the stacks of religious brochures on the table at mid-right). Remember that we are auctioning the BROCHURE, and NOT the photo (which our consignor's son-in-law kept)! Finally, note that our consignor had a second one of these brochures that was also signed (but it had a different subject matter), and we auctioned that brochure in June of 2016 when it auctioned for $123!  Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
