Here are two of my favorite, the first being a Dec 6, 1773 issue of the Massachusetts Gazette, Boston newspaper. The entire front page is about the Tea just being landed from the East-India Tea company, and the Boston selectmen's committe(hancock and Adams) on what to do with it.

This one is the famous ORIGINAL Bum paper from the Dodgers '55 World Series victory.

I LOVE that Boston Tea Party-related newspaper! I had to google to see the date of the Tea Party; so cool that the paper is only a week before that - incredible!

Randall,
Thanks! That Cash table leg would fill a hole in the collection....

Scott S, the Tea Paper is awesome! All the front page is devoted to the tea that is just landed and is sitting in Boston Harbor. The front page also contains Governor Hutchinsons's letter to the rebels informing them of their illegal meeting.

Being in a Boston paper...very exciting!

I no longer save newspapers, but I like to take pictures of newspapers for big events on the newsstands. It's fun to see pictures of what are now collector's items in their original form, readily available for cover price...

Brian, That's awesome...Does anyone have other memorabilia of Jim Creighton?

Coincidently I just bought an 1881 American newspaper directory a couple weeks ago off eBay...seems to list every newspaper from the biggest cities to every backwater little burg...essentially I believe the directory was marketed to business' who wanted to run ads and needed a list of, and contact info, for all newspapers so they could advertise their products...I've always found the newspaper business interesting.

Doug, that one is a beauty! I love these front page illustrations. This one looks familiar although it has been a loooong time since I've seen it.

Did someone say they wanted some old baseball newspapers? Here ya go!

First up, two adjoining pages leading up to the 1912 World Series. First page pictures McGraw holding a plate with all of the NY Giants, while Stahl offers up a plate of all of the Boston Red Sox.

Next, a 1915 paper featuring head shots of all of the Red Sox. Some young pitcher George Ruth in the front there. (Glare is because this is framed.)

Lastly, say it ain't so, Joe!

Thank you, Scott. Those are amazing, but I particularly like the "plates".
