Original silver gelatin photograph, probably a publicity photo, measuring 10 inches by almost 6 inches by an unknown photographer circa 1925. Depicts professional boxer, Jack Webb. A young female admirer has pasted a small image of (presumably) herself just below Mr. Webb along with an annotation in ink, "Jack Webb, My Hero." The verso of the image is annotated in pencil, probably by the photographer, "Webb 2 [two] 6 x 10 blk."
