CHICAGO SUNDAY TRIBUNE, Aug. 29, 1926

• Amelia Gade Corson - female long-distance swimmer
• Successful crossing of the English Channel (20.9 miles)

The top of the front page has a nice banner headline for display: "MOTHER OF 2 SWIMS CHANNEL" with subheads. (see images) 
Complete 1st section only with all 12 pages, light toning and a little wear at the margins, generally nice.

Background: Amelia Gade Corson’s August 28, 1926 crossing of the English Channel stands out as a extraordinarily rare and historical feat in open-water endurance swimming, occurring during a high-stakes, competitive summer when the world was focused on whether a female swimmer could master the treacherous channel. Coming just 22 days after Gertrude Ederle shattered the overall speed record to become the first woman to make the crossing, Corson navigated heavy currents and harsh conditions over 15 hours and 28 minutes from Cap Gris-Nez, France to Shakespeare Beach, Dover, becoming only the second woman in history—and the first mother—to ever complete the grueling swim. The rarity of her achievement is heightened by her unique profile as a self-trained, working-class mother of two whose husband navigated her escort tugboat, contrasting with the heavily financed athletic delegations of her era, and cementing her legacy alongside her previous record-setting distance swims down the Hudson River and around Manhattan.
