Bobby Fischer to win World Chess Championship....

Item # 714115 ·
THE SPRINGFIELD UNION, Mass., July 21, 1972

* World Chess Championship (1972)
* Bobby Fischer vs. Boris Vasilievich Spassky
* First American to eventually win (game 5)


The front page has a two column heading: "Fischer Wins Fifth Game" with photo of the two playing. First report coverage continues on page 2 with move by move description and illustration of the board. (see images) Report on Bobby Fischer winning game 5 of the World chess championship vs. Spassky.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because there was really no reason to save it at the time.
Complete with 46 pages, a little spine wear, generally nice.
