For Sale is a Full Page removed from "The Illustrated Sporting and dramatic News, March 15th, 1935," showing the Following 3 Photographs from "Schmeling Beats Hamas :  Sunday's Fight in Hamburg."  
A Conclusive Victory after nine Rounds which gave Schmeling the Right to Challenge Max Bear.

   a- Schmeling's Left Lead :  Schmeling boxed on Sunday as well as ever he did in the days when he held the World Heavyweight Championship Championship, and his conclusive victory over Hamas now gives him a clear claim to a fight for the world title  with Max Baer.  Last time he met Baer, nearly two years ago, Schmeling was knocked out. But at that time he was also beaten by Hamas, so that he has now evidently improved.

   b- At Close Quarters :  Physically the men were well matched, going into the ring at nearly the same weight, but as a boxer Schmeling was easily superior to the American. The fight aroused the greatest enthusiasm in Germany, and drew 22,000 spectators, among them the former Crown Prince. When the result was declared the crowd stood up and sang "Deutschland uber Alles"

   c- Hamas Misses :  Hamas has missed with a left swing, leaving himself temporarily lacking both guard and balance.  Hamas showed the greatest courage and, though repeatedly down, always managed to get back on to his feet before the count. He was still up and taking tremendous punishment when the referee awarded Schmeling a technical Knock-out in the ninth round.

Condition is Very Good.
