Thanks for the comments, Rawn and David! I am a huge Red Sox fan, especially of the pre-war dynasty they had in the 1910's.

I had picked up a big collection of Boston Globe newspapers spanning from 1910 - 1920 about 20 years ago, and it covers all major events of the time: presidential news, Titanic sinking, and sports. I had one page from the Red Sox World Series appearances from 1912, 1915 and 1916 framed in this same manner. Unfortunately, I do not have any 1918 papers (or 1903 for that matter). I'd love to find 1903 and 1918 examples and have them framed similarly, to give me a complete set of the vintage Series wins!

Here is the 1916 paper which I had done in the same manner....



And also since I'm showing off (even though it's non-sports), here is the Boston Globe front page from the day the Titanic sank:
