June 23, 1936

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, June 23, 1936

* University of Washington Huskies crew

The top of page 3 of the sport's section has a nice banner heading: "WASHINGTON HUSKIES ENTER TWO CREWS IN OLYMPIC TRIALS" with subhead and results chart. (see images) This crew would go on to win the 1936 Summer Olympics gold medal in Nazi Germany less than 2 months later.
Complete with 30+ pages, light toning at the margins, some small binding holes along the spine, generally nice.
