THE DAILY PICAYUNE, New Orleans, LA, July 13, 1904
 
* Inaugural Mt. Washington Race

This 16 page newspaper has a discrete and brief report on the bottom of page 10: "The Wheel" "Mount Washington Ascent" which tells of the first race up this famous mountaintop by automobile. Although a small report, this is the 1st report of the inaugural race which is still ran today. Other news of the day with many interesting advertisements. Usual browning with minor margin wear.
