THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 10, 1933

* Babe Ruth hits 3 home runs
* New York Yankees baseball

* Late in his career

The sport's section (page 16) has a four column headline: "Yanks Sweep Double-Header With Detroit" with subheads that include: "RUTH HITS 3 HOMERS AS YANKS TAKE TWO" and more with photo of Ruth swinging the bat and another showing Lou Gehrig stealing second base. (see) Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication, especially on this topic.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 30 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. Nice condition.
