1969 Victoria Vedetten Parade #583, Cassius Clay.
Issued in the Netherlands during his exile from boxing for refusing induction into the U.S. Armed Forces, the card still refers to him by his birth name, "Cassius Clay," despite his public embrace of the name Muhammad Ali years earlier (1964). This disconnect reflects the global struggle to acknowledge his identity and activism. This international card issue underscores Ali’s worldwide fame and influence beyond the ring.
