Whirlaway wins Belmont & triple crown...



Item # 697086

June 08, 1941

THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 8, 1941

* Whirlaway - horse racing
* Belmont Stakes win (last of 3 wins)
* Triple crown winner


The front page of the sport's section has a nice banner headline: "WHIRLAWAY, 1 T0 4, WINS BELMONT STAKES BY 3 LENGTHS" with subheads and 2 related photos. (see images) This was the 3rd of 3 historic wins for the famed horse for the triple crown. Nice for display and to have in this World famous publication.
Complete Sunday edition with 120+ pages, light toning and minor wear at the margins, generally nice.
