Another Photo Pickup - Jeffries / Johnson fight

[wondo]

Got this one on ebay - seems to be 30s vintage like my other group. Has anyone seen this before? Is this a well-known pic?

Hi John,

Thats from the Jeffries vs Johnson fight. I believe its a Dana photo. Here is one that sold previously.

Aaron,

Thanks!

A version of a Dana photo. I'd guess 1930s as well. Same source as the last one; I had it watched too. Nice p/u.

Looks like a version of the Pepper Whiskey ads used from this fight.

Yes, it does look like Whiskey Adv poster series. What's on the backside?

What's the total amount of poster in the Whiskey adv series 10-12 posters?

My guess, Albert, is that there is one per round, so 15.

The real backdrop. Look below the "4" on the sign--I believe it is the base of the flagpole shown in these two Dana PCs:

No idea really. I also seem to recall different formats and sizes of these.
