Very first All-Star game: Babe Ruth a focus...
Item # 705966
July 07, 1933
NEW YORK TIMES, July 7, 1933 A banner headline on page 12 reports on the first ever Major League Baseball All-Star game: "Ruth's Home Run Gives American League Margin of Victory at Chicago".
One column subheads include: "American League Beats Rivals, 4-2" "49,000 See Ruth's Homer Yield Two Runs as Nationals Are Toppled" "Long Hit Comes In Third" "Frisch Also Gets Circuit Smash--Gomez, Crowder, Grove Baffle Losers". Included is a detailed summary of the game with the box score.
The photos show Babe Ruth & Frank Frisch with a related report: "Game Of All-Stars Told Play By Play".
Complete in 30 pages, various tears at the margins with some flaking but no loss to the mentioned reports. Rather fragile & should be handled carefully
