This is an original issue of the Boston Herald, Sept 2, 1919.
Babe Ruth pitches and wins game 1 of a doubleheader, then hits a game winning HR in game 2.
His triple in the first game accounts for all the runs in a 2-1 win.
He drives in 4 of the 5 runs scored in the DH sweep.
Great coverage of the game with complete box score.
One of the best articles about Ruth you will find.
What better place to read about the Babe than in a Boston newspaper.
Ruth is playing in his last few games for the Red Sox before the terrible decision to
sell him to the Yankees.
This is the complete and original 18 page issue with all the national and local news as well.
In addition, the great ads and entertainment listings. Transportation and classifieds too.
Nothing has been clipped or removed from this issue.
Please take the time to review all of my images below.
There is much more in this issue than what I presented here.
The newspaper is in surprisingly fine condition for it's age.
You will notice some uneven borders, very minor rough edges, and some age discoloration.
