Nice Lou Gehrig headline...

Item # 583052 ·
THE OMAHA BEE-NEWS, Omaha, Nebraska, June 14, 1929

* Lou Gehrig
* New York Yankees
* Home run race

The front page features a nice five column headline that proclaims: "Gehrig Hits 2 Homers" with subhead: "CLOUTS TWO TO RUN HIS TOTAL TO 17" which tells of Lou Gehrig hitting 2 home runs in a regular season game, taking over the season lead in this category. Unusual for such a nice headline on the front page regarding Gehrig. Nice for display.

Other news of the day. Complete in 32 pages, light browning, little margin wear, otherwise good condition.
