This 36 page newspaper has a nice banner headline above the masthead on the front page: "Baer Wins on Technical Knockout in 11th" with subheads and nice photo of Baer. (see) More related reporting in the sport's section as well. Tells of the heavyweight championship bout between Max Baer and Primo Carnera.

Also on the front page are one column headlines that include: "MUSSOLINI TALKS WITH CHANCELLOR HITLER IN VENICE" and more. (see) this was when Adolph Hitler met Benito Mussolini for the very first time.

Two significant reports in the same issue and on the front page.

Light browning with little margin wear, otherwise good.
