This original photograph was taken by legendary photographer Curt Gunther during a 1953 SPORT magazine photo session to illustrate an article on Willie Pep’s comeback.

Each piece is hand titled and numbered, carries The SPORT Collection emboss and is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity. Mounting, matting and framing are also to the highest archival standards available anywhere.

Finished image size, 14″ wide by 17″ high. Framed size, 21″ by 25″.

Every fine-art product from the SPORT Gallery is printed on premium 100% Hahnemuhle cotton rag paper or Premier Art Canvas, and printed with UltraChrome K3 pigmented inks for the highest available archival quality. All prints are hand-printed in Toronto and made to order.

Mounting, matting and framing are also to the highest archival standards. Every fine art frame is made in Toronto to order by a local framer. We use ArtCare mountboard and matboard. Tru Vue UV-coated conservation glass and Roma solid poplar frames, all of which meet or exceed museum standards for fade resistance and durability.

Unframed prints ship in a heavy-duty tube to ensure prints are not damaged during shipping. When you receive your print it will appear curled but will flatten out when framed. A tube is the safest way to ship a print. Unframed prints over $100 ship for free within Canada.

Please note that due to the weight and fragility we do not ship framed pieces. We do have a selection of framed prints in stock at our Toronto gallery that are available for pick-up and select postal codes are eligible for local delivery of framed prints.
