1964 Sonny Liston vs. Cassius Clay 'Auxiliary Press' Full Ticket

This is a rare full admission ticket for the historic World's Heavyweight Championship boxing match between champion Sonny Liston and challenger Cassius Clay (later Muhammad Ali) held at Convention Hall in Miami Beach, Florida, on February 25, 1964. The ticket is specifically designated for the 'AUXILIARY PRESS' in bold red sans-serif typeface at the top and repeated as a vertical red stamp on the left side. The ticket is printed on off-white cardstock with black and red ink, featuring headshots of both fighters in circular frames. It details Section 11, Row 24, Seat 15. Notable features include the venue address (1700 Washington Ave.) and the scheduled 15 rounds. The condition appears excellent for its age, showing sharp corners, no visible creasing, and vibrant ink, though there is minor age-toning and very slight surface wear. The typography and layout are characteristic of 1960s sports ephemera. This event is globally significant as it marked the beginning of Ali's first reign as heavyweight champion and his subsequent name change, making any genuine press-related materials from this night highly collectible.
