EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary German boxer, Max Schmeling, in 1938. Max Schmeling (1905-2005) was a prominent figure in the world of boxing during the early 20th century. As the world heavyweight champion from 1930 to 1932, he left an indelible mark on the sport. Schmeling is best remembered for his two iconic fights against Joe Louis in the late 1930s. In their first encounter, he emerged victorious, but it was their second bout that became historic as it determined the world title. Although Schmeling lost this match, his skill and determination made him a respected sportsman worldwide. In this portrait captured by The Print Collector29 (not associated with any company), we see Max Schmeling exuding strength and confidence. Dressed impeccably in traditional boxing attire, his vest accentuates his muscular physique while adding a touch of elegance to his appearance. This photograph not only showcases Schmeling's physical prowess but also offers a glimpse into Germany's sporting history during that era. It serves as a testament to his status as one of Germany's most celebrated athletes. Preserved through time on a Churchmans Cigarettes picture card, this image has become an iconic representation of Max Schmeling's legacy as both a sports personality and former world champion.
