THE GLOBE, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, January 6, 1920 Page 8 contains one of the more historic reports in all of baseball history with a one column head announcing: "'Babe' Ruth Sold To Yankees" and the subhead: "Regarded as Biggest Deal Ever Pulled-Off in Baseball Circles--Price Ranges from $75,000 to $150,000." The related articles takes close to two-thirds of the first column (see).
This is the complete 16 page issue, usual browning with little spine wear, otherwise good. Should be handled with care. Note that Bethlehem is just 84 miles from New York City!
