June 15, 1935

CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, June 15, 1935 

* Cinderella Man famous upset win
* Heavyweight boxing title fight
* James Braddock vs. Max Baer


The front page of section 2 (sports) has a one column heading: "BRADDOCK PAID $31,244; TITLE SAFE TILL 1936" with subhead and 3 related photos.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 32 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. A few binding holes along the spine, nice condition.
