Description: Signed Joe Louis postage stamps by former heavy weight champion Max Schmeling. The US Postal Service honored Joe Louis (1914-1981) with a 29-cent commemorative stamp issued on June 22, 1993, at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan. This issuance marked the 55th anniversary of the 1938 Louis-Schmeling rematch, in which Louis knocked-out Germany's Max Schmeling in the first round. Fought under the shadow of Hitler's march into Europe, the fight took on the broader symbolic significance of democracy against fascism.The stamp is based on a classic photograph of the chap: Louis, in a boxer's stance, has his fists held high, ready for action. This stamp was the first US postage stamp to commemorate the sport of boxing. I COMBINE POSTAGE YOU ONLY PAY FOR 1 PHOTO. I POST SIGNED FOR IF MORE THAN ONE IS BOUGHT .
