March 28, 1939
CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, March 28, 1939
* Very first "March Madness" NCAA basketball championship, 1939
* Oregon Ducks defeat the Ohio State Buckeyes
The front page of section 2 (sports) has a great banner headline with reporting on the final game of the very first NCAA basketball championship ever held: "OREGON WINS NATIONAL BASKETBALL TITLE" with subheads and stat chart. Nice for display. A rare opportunity for a newspaper account of the very first NCAA basketball championship. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete with all 30 pages, this is the "rag edition" printed on very high quality newsprint meant for institutional holdings. In great condition as such, a few small binding holes at the spine.
