Alright so this photo and signed business card which is in the frame has been passed down to me already from my father . My grandfather who is on left is standing next to Ali and Luis Rodriguez who was current welterweight champ at the time and my grandfathers brother on far right. Photo was took sometime in April 1961 at the 5th street gym in Miami, Fl. Not sure why my grandpa was there even though i know he was a boxer in the navy but he sold life insurance in Georgia as you can see on the business card. This was took i guess sometime before the 1st Sonny Liston fight and my grandpa said Ali was holding up the 4 fingers on each hand indicating Liston would go in the 4th round. I just think this is a super cool photo and autograph of Ali before he changed his name on my grandpas business card. I was wondering for just interest ( i would never even try to sell) if this would be worth much? Thanks for any comments and maybe rough guesses on its worth.

That is a very nice piece and valuable probably 1000 to 1500 range and going up the Cassius Clay auto's are hard to come by and fetching more and more, I am envious.

John is right...that sig is spot on.

What a great sig to have. I'm a little J myself :)

Great Cassius Clay autograph!! You can get the picture restored at Costco for a reasonable price.
