Knute Rockne killed in 1931... terrific headline..



Item # 713864

March 31, 1931

THE DETROIT NEWS, March 31, 1931 

* Knute Rockne killed(1st report)
* Notre Dame head football coach
* Terrific headline for display
* Early, same day breaking coverage


The fantastic large, bold banner headline announces: "ROCKNE KILLED" with subheads and photo of Rockne. Terrific for display. This is definitely the most displayable issue we have offered on this particular event. Would look great framed in a sport's enthusiast household, especially a Fighting Irish football fan. Also nice that this newspaper is dated the day he died, as most first reports were dated April 1.
Complete with all 42 pages, rag edition in great condition.
