THE NEW YORK TIMES, October 14, 1929

* 1929 World Series (pre game 5)
* Chicago Cubs vs. Philadelphia Athletics
* Major league baseball MLB


The top of the front page has a two column heading: "Hoover Will Attend World Series Game Today; Will Make Trip With Wife as "Everyday Fan" Much more in the sport's section (page 27) with headlines, photos and lineups. (see) This would be the day in which the Athletics would win the World Series championship.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 46 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Minor spine wear, nice condition.
