ROLAND LA STARZA
Black and white publicity photograph of a young Roland La Starza in a boxing ring posed to box.
Photograph signed: "Roland/La Starza". B/w, 8x10 overall, image 6½x9 (one surface). Roland La Starza (1927-2009) fought Rocky Marciano for the heavyweight boxing title on September 24, 1953.  For six rounds he held his own with the champ, but in the later rounds Marciano pummeled the tiring challenger until the referee stopped the fight in the eleventh.  It was the first defeat for La Starza after 57 wins, 24 by knockout.  La Starza never really came back from that title bout, losing 5 of his remaining seven fights.  La Starza got some film and TV acting roles in the 1960s and early seventies, even winning a regular role in the series The Gallant Men (1962-1963). Slightly grainy image. Otherwise, fine condition.
