Published by prison inmates... Joe Jackson is ahead of Ty Cobb for the batting title...



Item # 696531

July 26, 1913

THE SUMMARY, Elmira, New York, July 26, 1913 

* Published by prison inmates
* Elmira Correctional Facility
* Joe Jackson & Ty Cobb


interesting newspaper  "Published Weekly by & for the Inmates of the N.Y.S. Reformatory at Elmira" as noted at the top of page 2.
Actually fine baseball content as the back page has subheads: "Joe Jackson Is Ahead of Ty Cobb" "Jake Daubert Is Hitting Near Top in the National League". A wealth of other sports reports consumes the entire back page.
Measures 10 by 13 1/4 inches printed on nice rag paper, very nice condition.
