Item # 698256

October 17, 1914

THE SUMMARY, Elmira, New York, Oct. 17, 1914  An interesting newspaper  "Published Weekly by & for the Inmates of the N.Y.S. Reformatory at Elmira". as noted at the top of page 2.
Great content in this issue, as one-third of the front page is a report on the Braves winning the 1914 World Series with heads: "Braves Are Victorious" "Win World's Series in Four Straight--Gate Receipts Total $226,739". And then the entire back page is taken up with reports of all four games providing much detail.
Measures 10 by 13 1/4 inches printed on nice rag paper, very nice condition, a few binding slits at the blank spine do not deter.

Item from Catalog 342 (released for May, 2024)
