Ali

A Polaroid my Dad got from his trainer in the 1970s.  My Dad was an Alsip police officer and Ali's trainer lived in Alsip.   This is an original polaroid of him having dinner in Alsip.

MUHAMMAD ALI: Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee

My Dad became friends with Ali's trainer, who lived in Alsip, Illinois, during his popularity in the 1970's. My Dad was a police officer that was pretty well liked in Alsip. His trainer gave us the polaroid above from one of his dinner visits. He also gave us the publicity pic below. GREAT stuff!
