PITTSBURGH SUN-TELEGRAPH, August 17, 1948 

* Babe Ruth death (1st report)
* New York Yankees


The front page has a nice banner headline above the masthead: "BABE RUTH MOURNED" with "Life Story of King of Swat" in red lettering. (see) Subheads and two photos as well.
More inside with full page pictorial. (see)
Incomplete issue containing 22 pages, this issue has problems with wear and tear, the front leaf has some archival mends on page 2, minimal text loss, still nice for display as such.
