* New York Mets very 1st pennant
* Amazin - miracle - Shea Stadium
* Best title to be had ? (rare as such)


The front page has a three column head: "Mets Win to Clinch Eastern Title" with a photo.
In the sport's section is a banner headline: "Mets Beat Cards, 6-0, and Win Division Title After Cubs Down Expos, 6-3" with subheads, photo and box scores. First report coverage on the New York Mets winning their first pennant in franchise history. They would go on and win the World Series in what many consider the biggest upsets in baseball history. Great to have in this famous newspaper.
