EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, April 20, 1917

* Early Babe Ruth photo
* Boston Red Sox pitcher
* Major league baseball
* About to erupt as a hitter ?

Page 10 has a three column pictorial with heading: "These Will Fill The Breach When Cobbs And Johnsons Fade" which shows a group of young and upcoming baseball stars which includes a 23 year old Babe Ruth as a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox. Includes text as well. (see images)
Surprisingly this issue is in good condition being from the "wood pulp" era. Very hard to find issues that are not totally fragile from this era in paper.
Complete with 14 pages, 2 small library stamps within the masthead, irregular along the spine, generally very nice.
