Vintage 1920s Dempsey Tunney Boxing Ring Photo Sepia 8x10 Crowd Original
[Used]: Vintage original 1920s sepia-toned sports photograph with typical age-related handling and storage wear. Front image surface shows overall warm toning with scattered tiny dark and light specks, faint soiling marks, and fine surface scuffs and soft handling impressions visible in glare, along with mild edge and corner wear and a gentle natural curl to the sheet but no tears through the printed image area. Verso displays uniform age discoloration with scattered small smudges and several large areas of brown adhesive staining and residue near the corners and along one edge from prior mounting, together with handwritten pencil notations including \"Dempsey-Tunney\" at center and a small inventory code near one lower corner, and the photograph is offered as a single loose unmounted and unframed print with no mats, frames, or additional accessories included.
Original vintage 1920s sepia-toned photographic print depicting an action moment from a boxing match in a roped ring before a large crowd.
In the image one boxer walks away at the left in dark trunks while the referee stands at center with a raised arm counting over the other boxer, who is down on one knee in a neutral corner at the right and gripping the ring rope.
Spectators fill the background bleachers in suits and hats, and a figure in the foreground at ringside raises an arm toward the ring, giving the scene a vivid documentary sports and photojournalism character.
The image is printed in warm sepia on medium-weight photographic paper with a semi-gloss surface typical of early-twentieth-century sports photographs.
The reverse side of the sheet is plain and uncoated with a handwritten pencil notation at center reading \"Dempsey-Tunney\" and a small pencil inventory mark near one corner, and the photograph is offered unframed for display, collections, or research related to historic boxing and sporting events.
