1931 Jack Sharkey....
MEMPHIS EVENING APPEAL, Tennessee, July 22, 1931
- Boxer Jack Sharkey
- Heavyweight boxing odds
This 16 page newspaper has a nice six column headline on the front page: "SHARKEY IS 3 TO 1 FAVORITE", with subheads (see images). Nice to have this report on the front page and very unusual for such a nice headline here as well. Nice for display.
Other news of the day with period advertising throughout. Light browning with a little margin wear and chipping, a little irregular at the spine, otherwise good condition.
