LOS ANGELES RECORD, July 4, 1919
* Jack Dempsey vs. Jess Willard
* Heavyweight boxing title fight (1st report)
* FRONT LEAF ONLY (pages 1 & 2)
The front page has a great headline in bold lettering: "DEMPSEY IS CHAMP IN THIRD" with subheads, round by round description and large portrait photo of Dempsey. More on page 2. First report coverage on the famous heavyweight title fight between Jack Dempsey and Jess Willard. This was when Dempsey became World champion for the first time.
Front leaf only (pages 1 & 2), some archival mending and irregular at the margins and central fold, nice for display as such.
