Description: *Here you have A WONDERFUL BIT of VINTAGE BOXING AND BASEBALL MEMORABILIA! Please...SEE THE SCANS! This is THE BENNY LEONARD and LEW TENDLER LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE FIGHT AT YANKEE STADIUM featured inside a complete 1923 issue of THE MID-WEEK PICTORIAL This is a TWO–PAGE PIECE WITH FOUR PHOTOS. This was published by the NEW YORK TIMES! It is a beautiful photo journal of the news and images of the day throughout the United States and the world. This is packed with photos of people, places and history being made. The Mid-Week Pictorial measures just over 16 inches X 11 inches which allows for larger photos. Nice articles! Nice Photos! THIS ISSUE ALSO HAS EXTENSIVE MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL COVERAGE. THE NEW YORK GIANTS WERE THE REIGNING WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS. There is a two-page spread topped by game action at the Polo Grounds between the Giants and Cubs and photos of JOHN McGRAW, FRANKIE FRISCH, ROSS YOUNG, HUGH McQUILLIN, GEORGE KELLY, DAVE BANCROFT, CASEY STENGEL, FRANK SNYDER, and JACK SCOTT… A second spread shows KENNESAW MOUNTAINLANDIS LEADING THE GIANTS ONTO THE POLO GROUNDS FIELD FOR THE RAISING OF THEIR CHAMPIONSHIP PENNANT! That page has shots of PITTSBURGH PIRATES PLAYERS including BABE ADAMS, BILL McKECHNIE, HAROLD TRAYNOR, CHARLIE GRIMM and RABBIT MARANVILLE… Yet another two-page spread features the CINCINNATI REDS: IVY WINGO, LOU FONSECA, PAT DUNCAN, EDD ROUSH, PETE DONOHUE, EPPA RIXEY, PAT MORAN, SAM BOHNE and JIM CAVENEY… This is a news stand publication. This has some good vintage edge and corner wear. NOTE THAT THIS HAS TRANSPARENT REINFORCING TAPE ON THE SPINE... The greatest thing to be aware of is that these were not produced on acid-free paper, so the edges tend to flake. Not mint, but fairly gently read and a very rare find! A great historical piece! Take it home with you! Winner, please add $6.50 for postage and wonderful packaging. I am happy to send this to any country. First class international postage will be charged… GOOD LUCK!
