Still perhaps the greatest and most inspirational film about the “Sweet Science,” Sylvester Stallone’s “Rocky” was the highest grossing film of 1976 and won the Academy Award’s Oscar for Best Movie. The relatively low-budget film has inspired both filmmakers and boxers to pursue their dreams and 44 professional pugilists as well as broadcaster Al Bernstein, photographer Neil Leifer and referee Richard Steele signed this 36” x 24” promotional movie poster including heavyweight champions George Foreman and Leon Spinks, and other champions like Oscar De la Hoya and Tito Trinidad, and many others including: Gerry Cooney, Aaron Pryor, Vito Antuofermo, Wilfredo Gomez, Wilfredo Vasquez, Andrew Ward, Barry Hearn, Billy Backus, Carlos Deleon, Carlos Ortiz, Dick Deveronica, Don Chargin, Dwight Qawi, Enzo Calzaghe, Erik Morales, Frank Tate, George Chuvalo, Glen Johnson, Graham Houston, Iran Barkley, Ivan Calderon, Joe Cazaghe, John John Molina, John Ruiz, John Stacey, Juan LaPorte, Ken Bayless, Peter McBride, Pipino Cuevas, Ruben Olivares, Russell Peltz, Stan Christodoulou, Tony Graziano, Traci Patterson and Zab Judah. All signatures are in bold blue Sharpie and the poster comes with a JSA LOA.
