This is a rare treat--a copy of section one of "The Sporting News, The Baseball Paper of the World". Featured on the front page is a cartoon showing Joe DiMaggio reeling in a fish, sitting on a deck chair on a boat. Rolled up in his pocket is a rolled up copy of his (then) breath taking $90,000 contract that he signed after his discharge from the Army. Also seen in the picture is a carton of Chesterfield cigarettes, probably an endorsement, would be my guess. The paper is sealed in plastic with a cardboard stiffener. It is in very good condition, yellowed with age but no edge tears. This dealer has a very nice collection of autographed sports photos and other memoribilia, mainly baseball & boxing. We invite you to visit our GoAntiques site to view the other offerings from this collection.
