THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 6, 1974 

* Chris Evert wins 1st Wimbledon 
* Tennis singles
 

The front page is a two column heading: "Chris Evert Captures The Wimbledon Title" with photo of Evert throwing her racket into the air after winning. (see photos). Coverage continues into the sport's section with another photo. (see photos).

1st report coverage on famed American tennis star, Chris Evert, winning her very 1st Wimbledon singles championship. Jimmy Connors, who she was engaged with at the time, won the Men's championship the very next day. Nice to have in this famous NYC title.

Other news, sports and advertisements of the day throughout. Complete in 34 pages, never bound, very minor margin wear, otherwise nice condition.
