    Default John L Sullivan pic from 1887

    Opinion please .

    I gotta chance to buy a full one page newspaper pic and story about the great John L. for 40 bucks.

    Its in pretty decent shape under glass frame right now. The frame isnt included.

    If you can afford it and it's something you want, then go for it. It obviously has more personal meaning to you than it does to many people here, so I say go for it if it's what you want.

    If it is a genuine thing from back in the days of John L or even within 25years of when he reigned I would snatch it up in a second...I mean in truth you are not going to run into a lot of genuine things from back then...If it is a reprint or something of the sort I don't know but as CFH stated if you want it and can afford it go for it...It is a collectable that you want...Personally I would snatch it up

    It IS a pretty impressive looking piece, I must say.
    Thanks for all your input.
