Boxing bill (poster) advertisement for Henry Armstrong fight film, 9"x 12," one sheet. Some aging and browning;otherwise very good. Henry Armstrong (1912-1988) is considered one of the best fighters in history. He held three titles at the same time, and almost won a fourth. Before Sugar Ray Robinson would come to dominate the fight scene, Hank Armstrong was second only to Joe Louis, as one of the most important black athletes in America during the first half of the last century. He is pictured on this movie bill, which also lists some of his fistic accomplishments.
