Default vintage newspapers, 19th century boxscores

Posted By: Jerry

This in no way reflects the Current prices of Newspapers but a few years ago, I bought 3 Months of 1912 Newspapers for 75.00. They were in a large binder like they were from a Library inventory. They had pictures and box scores of 1912 Major league games. There was even an article about Cobb going into the stands to beat up a fan in Boston. As luck would have these newspapers also covered the sinking of the Titantic and when the Movie came out, i sold them for a substantial Profit. I know there is a company that specializes in the sell of old newspapers but don't know there name.
Good luck with your collecting Endevor
