EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Monte Fresco, we are transported back to a momentous day in history - the 11th of October, 1971. Muhammad Ali, the legendary African American boxer and heavyweight champion, finds himself in an unexpected setting: a supermarket in Stretford. However, even amidst grocery aisles and shopping carts, his magnetic presence shines through. Ali's purpose for being there was to promote Ovaltine, a popular drink during that era. Yet beyond fulfilling commercial obligations, he effortlessly exudes charisma and charm as he poses for this portrait. His confident gaze and powerful physique remind us why he is widely regarded as one of the greatest athletes of all time. As an icon who transcended sports boundaries with his activism and outspoken personality (earning him the moniker "The Louisville Lip"), Ali became more than just a boxing legend; he became a symbol of strength and resilience for marginalized communities worldwide. This photograph serves as both a testament to Ali's enduring legacy and an embodiment of the spirit that made him beloved by millions. It captures not only his physical prowess but also his unwavering determination to fight against injustice both inside and outside the ring. Monte Fresco masterfully freezes this moment in time when Muhammad Ali graced an ordinary supermarket with extraordinary energy. Through this image from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded once again why Muhammad Ali will forever be remembered as The People
