SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN, Massachusetts, September 9, 1919
* Early Babe Ruth home run record (sets the standard)
* Boston Red Sox w/ photo
* MLB baseball
This 18 page newspaper has a two column headline on page 14: "Ruth Makes Home-Run Record" with subheads that include: "RUTH LANDS THAT HOME RUN RECORD" "His 26th Circuit Clout of Season After Injuring Elbow by Crashing Into Fence for Foul"
and more with a great action photo of Ruth. (see)
Tells of a early Babe Ruth, playing the Boston Red Sox, breaking the current home run record that was held by Buck Freeman. Nice to have from a city near Boston.
Other news of the day. Usual browning with little margin wear but no text loss, otherwise in good condition. Should be handled with care.
