This is a wonderful real photo of the Belfast Boxer Rinty Monaghan shaking hands in the ring with his opponent Terry Allen - they fought in 1947 and then twice again in 1949 but I'm not sure which bout this image was taken at.
It measures approx 10" x 8" (25cm x 20cm) and is embossed at the bottom right hand corner "IRISH PRESS PHOTO"
The item has some wear/creasing with a particularly heavy crease at the top right hand corner but I think it still looks in pretty good shape for its age - please review the images provided to best determine quality/condition of the item prior to purchase.
A rare piece of Rinty Monaghan/Belfast Boxing memorabilia - if this item is of interest please keep an eye on my Ebay store where I will be listing similar boxing related ephemera & photos.
Many thanks for looking!
