Pages toned, brittle, all pages loose with tears at central fold, chipped, with numerous marginal tears. A rare account of the Chicago Cubs’ pennant victory over the New York Giants on p. 1: “Chicago Smashes Out Victory Over New York 4 to 2 / Over 100,000 People Struggle to Enter Grounds - Fights Between Players - Mathewson Knocked Out of Box - Brown, Chance and Evers the Stars Who Won Pennant”. Photos of second baseman Johnny Evers, pitcher Mordecai Brown, and manager France Chance on p. 14. The Cubs would go on to win the 1908 World Series over the Detroit Tigers, 4 games to 2.
