September 29, 1941

KENTUCKY AND CINCINNATI TIMES STAR, September 29, 1941 

* Ted Williams famous year finishing .406 batting average 
* Boston Red Sox - MLB baseball
 

Not only is is difficult to find reports on Ted Williams' season-ending .406 batting average--which has not been topped in 68 years--but when they are found they are typically very small, inconspicuous reports without headlines.

This report is a somewhat pleasant exception, as page 10 has one column headlines: "Williams Hits For 406 Average" "Hugh Duffy Prompts Red Sox Leading Batsman"

The article is nice as well, the full text visible in the photos.

This issue is complete in 24 pages. Light browning with little margin wear, otherwise good.
