Chum Chum put the phone away since your
nose I'm on my lunch break
you're not on your lunch break all right
one more move put it away
got a painting I bought it about two
months prior to getting married to my
wife and really should have been
spending the money at the time so I got
a little bit of heck for buying him so
hopefully I would recoup some of that
money today this was done by Muhammad
Ali mm-hmm Muhammad Ali one of the
greatest boxers of all time not exactly
known for his painting skills one of his
neat is actually though he's not just a
celebrity painter he's been painting
since you were a child for my
understanding his dad was a sign painter
his dad sort of tried to get his
children not to do that existed painting
definitely war for a talent like
Muhammad Ali only comes once in a
lifetime by the time he was 18 in one a
couple Golden Gloves titles and an
Olympic gold medal the guy was just born
to box I mean one of the good things you
do have for it is that's a really big
Muhammad Ali autograph so I mean that's
a big plus there but it's not exactly
real artsy most people like Muhammad
Ali's stuff mm-hmm
they want subside trunks you know
something you can hang in your man cave
you know II mean it's a little weird
hanging this in your man cave because I
actually had it in my man cave back in
Florida where I'm from your wife hates
it right yeah
pretty much so what do you wanna do with
it I want to sell it all right how would
she want there's one other one for sale
for 7,500 I know you obviously work off
a wholesale so leave you some room for
profit five grand
that's what someone wanted for it not
necessarily what they're going for
anything with Muhammad Ali's signature
has the potential to be worth big money
but I really have no idea what his art
would be worth can I have someone look
at it absolutely let's creams me let me
see what Muhammad Ali art is going for
okay I'm gonna go give someone a call
all right hang out do some shopping fair
enough
have an in-depth conversation with this
individual I'll be back in a little bit
all right odious Cheetos
I've only done some research online and
I don't really have a good bearing of
what it's actually worth so it'll be
nice to hear a professionals opinion
[Music]
Muhammad Ali
art okay you called me down here for
Moreau Chagall Dali but never a nollie I
don't consider this Wow you know I'm
gonna try to be as delicate as possible
like you can tell that he was a better
boxer than he was a fine art yeah
definitely a unique piece was very
articulate creative guy we really are
kind of a natural extension so is a real
you know this wasn't done on the cheap I
mean it's a serigraph which is a fairly
high-end way of reproducing fine art
it's not like an offset lithographic Oh
Stern and the signature from what I've
seen of early examples of muhammad ali's
signature looks good so i don't think
you have any worry about authenticity
the big question is what's it worth
it'll have value as a collectible
certainly because it is hand-signed it's
numbered the nice thing about it being
part of a limited edition a published
work is you know there's only gonna be
500 you know it's authentic that having
been said this piece you see this and I
don't think had you not told me I would
have ever in a million years guess if
this was by Muhammad Ali so that makes
it a little bit tricky from a
collectible standpoint I'd probably put
the value somewhere somewhere in the
thousand dollar range probably okay but
I couldn't go any higher than that
well thanks master Rick hey my pleasure
now if you're looking for huh no it
wasn't I thought they would get a lot
more inherent value behind it I'll give
you 600 bucks for it
oh I can't take that low man you know he
said it's worth a thousand it's going up
in value you know that 800 okay no no
we're dealing with what it's worth today
and we don't know if it's gonna go up in
value ever I got in trouble with my wife
for it help me help me regain some of
that so you probably want to get rid of
her 500 nice Drive I'll tell you what
I'll give you 700 bucks for it I ain't
gonna go no more it's gonna take a while
to sell
fair enough man all right right about
Chum all right grab the picture I'll
meet you up at the front I don't know if
I'm gonna keep diving into the whole art
thing or not but if something comes
along I'm not opposed to picking it up
hopefully I won't sleep on the couch
work though
[Music]
