Knute Rockne's physician warning....

Item # 672879 ·

CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, December 24, 1930

  • Knute Rockne suffering from exhaustion
  • Notre Dame Fighting Irish football coach

The front page of section 2 (sports) has a one column heading: "Doctor Warns Rockne to Curb His Activities" (see) Rockne would be killed in a airplane crash a few months later.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 22 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Nice condition. A few small binding holes along the spine.
