THE NEW YORK TIMES, September 23, 1947
* Brooklyn Dodgers win pennant
* 1st Year of Jackie Robinson - The Bums
* Best title to be had ?
The sport's section (page 32) has a banner headline: "Dodgers Clinch Pennant as Cards Bow to Cubs in Night Game at St. Louis" with subheads that include: "Joyful Fans of Flatbush Parade At Midnight, Hail 'Beloved Bums'" and more with a nice team photo. (see) First report coverage on the Brooklyn Dodgers winning the National League pennant. 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. Fifty-two pages, a few cutouts on inside pages but none on the front page nor the page with the mentioned report, light toning and minor wear at the margins, otherwise nice.
