THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 26, 1941.

* Robert Moses 'Lefty' Grove
* 300th game pitching victory
* Boston Red Sox baseball


The sport's section (page 10) has a two column heading: "Grove Registers 300th Victory As Red Sox Check Indians, 10-6" with subhead and related photo. (see) 1st report coverage on Lefty Grove's 300th career win in MLB. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 30 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Very nice condition.
