The front page of the sport's section (inside) has a one column heading: "SEABISCUIT BREAKS COAST TRACK MARK" with subheads. (see) First report coverage on famous racehorse, Seabiscuit, winning the Bay Meadows Handicap at San Mateo, California Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in a thick 100+ page Sunday edition, 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. Nice condition.
