Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:28908788 |
Very rare bounded set of Newspapers dating to the 1919 World Series
Los Angeles Examiner from Oct 2 through 9th
This is the most incredible bound set of newspapers that I've ever seen for a few reasons. First it covers the 1919 historic Chicago Black Sox and Cincinnati Reds world series including the final game. Second this book when it was bound and given probably to a library it has a lot of errors in it. Some of the newspapers were duplicated three and four t...imes inside the binder, and it wasn't like there's three newspapers there are three front pages then three second pages Etc. You even have the final game from the World Series I believe there are 3 headline pages in there. Other games some of them have four. There are papers missing but for the same date you may have 4 different editions with different headlines. It truly is a hodgepodge that somehow got released from the home office and given too a Library.
The condition of this is not bad but the pages are brittle. I was able to thumb through them so they are not horrible you just have to be very careful. I would advise to pull out the important pages and get them protected immediately.
There's too much to list but I can tell you besides the multiple headlines of the actual games there is a very cool advertisement that has Shoeless Joe Jackson's picture in there which I've never seen before and I believe there's three copies of that. There's also extremely interesting advertisements from 1919 including a home vibrator which we all know what that is, wink wink!
This is being sold as is with no returns. I am pricing it to move but I can promise you for the money you are going to be blown away at what's in there.
For international shipping please email me so I can get you a quote with the city it's going to and a postal code.
