Rocky Marciano Photo

[packerbacker]

This 8X10 original, glossy photo has been in the family for years. It is supposedly Rocky Marciano with Father Clooney at the California Institution for Men in Chino, Ca. Story has it that the picture was taken about a week before Rocky's planecrash. Any idea of value?

From what I know about photo's of famous people. Like most things its rarity. If this picture is popular and lots of people have copies of it. Its not worth antything and it looks familiar to me. So I don't think its worth anything, I think its a copy of a famous photo.

Keep @ it and HH !!

Value is probably around $15 - $30.
I base the value on the picture not being autographed and on previous sales of similar photos.

The story I got, whether accurate or not I don't know, is the priest was the prison priest in Chino, CA and all of the guards at the prison got a copy of the pic. About a week later Rocky got killed in the plane crash. The picture is very old and isn't one of those production line copies, my late mother in law got it from a son of one of the guards.
