The Treasures of Muhammad Ali File, c 2010

Reference Code: GBR/0012/MS Add.10275/5/14/5

Scope and Contents

A file holding three pieces of paper that appear to relate to the 2010 book, The Treasures of Muhammad Ali, text within the publication written by Gavin Newsham. Two of the pieces of paper contain what appears to be a list of chapter titles or topic ideas for the book, written in Roger Law's hand, which largely follow the chapters of the publication. Next to some of these chapter titles are notes that mention various items, such as tickets and programmes for boxing matches. The third piece of paper also has a list of chapter titles, accompanied by notes written by Law. However, this list is incomplete. Also present is a business card for Jonathan Goodman, a publisher for the Carlton Publishing Group, which produced the book.

It is unclear why these items are in the archive and whether Roger Law had any involvement in the production of the book. However, Law was a fan of Muhammad Ali, an interest that he shared with friend and former collaborator, David King. King released a photographic biography on Muhammad Ali in 1975.
