4to, magazine, glossy covers, illustrated, 64 pp. Spine split at the bottom part of the magazine, some aging, but covers still in nice shape, contents with some aging and browning, but a little less than normal; very good. The cover features a young Floyd Patterson, who won the gold medal at the 1952 Olympics. He would go on to the youngest (21) heavyweight champion, and be the first fighter to regain the title. He would have historic fights with Sonny Liston Ingemar Johansson, and Muhammad Ali. This issue talks about Patterson's potential in the ring. There is also an article on heavyweight champ Rocky Marciano. Seller Inventory # 104103
