Rumble In The Jungle “20th of May Stadium” Blueprints

DATE
Year: 1974
Decade: 1970s
Century: 20th (1901-2000)

Actual blueprints of the 20th of May Stadium in Kinshasa, Zaire where Muhammad Ali defeated George Foreman to regain the Heavyweight Championship of the World in what many consider the greatest fight ever.

Used by the crews who set up the event and converted the venue to accommodate a championship bout. Blueprints bear 1974 dates preceding the fight. Lot also includes a 2-page document which lists the recording, sound and lighting equipment coming from the US for the “Festival in Zaire 74.”
