Muhammad Ali published by Magnum Photos

Books, I like em. I'm not sure about the rest of the world, but I couldn't imagine life today without them. Sure there's the internets, but I like to have something in my hand, turn the page, lift some photos ;) that kind of shit. Anyhow, I've wanted the GOAT "A Tribute To Muhammad Ali" book for sometime now. Published by Taschen Books, layout designed by legendary artist Jeff Koons, blah, blah, blah. One thing has stopped me tho'...the $1500 price tag. Fuck, I'm sure it's worth it, but I deff don't have that kinda caked to be throwing around.

So for those in the same situation as me, I recommend the Muhammad Ali book published by Magnum Photos. I think I got it from Barnes & Noble for seven dollars on sale. Tons of great photos, and a well put together layout. I've got some great photos out of this book including the images I've incorporated into my header.
So, log off the net, skip the magazine rack, and see what you can find.
