<B>DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN</B></I> is easily the most famous headline of the 20th century. The November 3, 1948 issue of the <I>Chicago Daily Tribune</B></I> became the paper that made the paper. A widely publicized photo showing the triumphant Truman gleefully displaying the blooper immortalized the Tribune's premature declaration of a Dewey win in the 1948 presidential race. This particular issue contains two complete sections and is evenly aged. One small tear above the masthead that can be repaired. Overall a very nice edition in fine condition. <BR><BR>Also included with this lot is a 10" x 8" B&W modern print of the above-mentioned famous photo, the uncropped, original version, signed in the lower margin by the photographer Byron H. Rollins. A three-page letter from him describes the circumstances surrounding him getting this historic shot, surely one the most recognizable images of the 20th century. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</
