MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL 1935 1st NIGHT GAME REPORT + OAKMONT US OPEN & JESSE OWENS

Description: Here you have a Great Bit of Vintage Historical Memorabilia! Please...SEE THE SCANS! This is the first major league baseball night game featured inside of a complete 1935 issue of LITERARY DIGEST Magazine! This issue includes the article "THUMBS DOWN ON NIGHT BASEBALL." (PLAYERS, FANS, UMPIRES, MASCOT REJECT CINCINNATI EXPERIMENT AS SYNTHETIC—ELECTRICITY COSTS $300 A GAME, BUT SUNSHINE IS FREE—OFFICIALS ENTHUSIASTIC.) Fascinating one–page article! Fine Photo! You get a sense of the article’s tenor by the headline. This is a thoroughly negative review of the experience. Among those mentioned in the article are CINCY, THE FOX-TERRIER MASCOT… FDR… CHARLEY DRESSEN VAN MUNGO… DAN TAYLOR… UMPIRE BILL KLEM… JOE BOWMAN… FORD FRICK AND WILLIAM HARRIDGE… Mention is made of the 1909 Fort Wayne night game and the 1931 House of David Game vs the Reds.. There are, of course, many other interesting features in this magazine… One in particular is “OAKMONT: NO CINCH FOR SPECIALISTS” (SCENE OF UNITED STATES OPEN GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP IS PERFECT TEST FOR ALL-ROUND GAME—TOURNAMENT DRAWS STARS FROM SOUTH AFRICA, JAPAN—SARAZEN, PICARD FAVORED TO WIN.) Well, SAM PARKS, JR WON… This is a one-page piece with shots of the two favorites… YET ANOTHER SPORTS FEATURE is a 3 photo pictorial feature on JESSE OWENS one year before his Berlin Olympics heroics SETTING 3 TRACK AND FIELD RECORDS. This is a wonderful time capsule. It is in fine condition with typical vintage corner and edge wear. It's not mint, but fairly gently read and a tough find! A great piece FOR THE COLLECTOR! Take it home with you! Winner, please add $5.50 for postage and wonderful packaging. International buyers will pay first class international postage. GOOD LUCK!
