High Jump collection of 11 clippings from 1987 -2000:.  I was once a high jumper myself, setting the school record at my high school and junior college, before choking in the big leagues.  My best was 6' 8 3/4".  It's quite fun flying through the air!  This collection includes

I personally clipped these myself, back when I operated the "Celebrity Newsclipping Service" in the 1980s and 1990s.  Almost every clipping is identified by the source and date, making this ideal for serious collectors, libraries and archivists.  The conditions are used, of course, with irregular edges, folds, creases and other signs of wear.  But everything is original.  I think you'll like this!  It took me a while to put together.  I saved it all these years, away from the light, in a non-smoking environment.  Just for you!  When you buy this rare gem, I will pack it carefully in a plastic cover, packed between stiff cardboard, shipped tight in a manila envelope.

I am selling thousands of clippings right now from the eighties, so check out my store for more goodies.  Personally, I think paper clippings are getting rarer and rarer in this digital age.  Do you have a special request?  Let me know and I'll look through my treasure vault for you.  I have much more than I am listing.  Thanks for taking a moment to read my listing.  Have a great day!  Stay safe!  Be happy!
