I own the largest collection of rare sports pages and sports related newspapers in the country. In my Store, Gallery of The Game, not only will you find Major Sporting events and stars from yesteryear, but you will find lesser-known stories and photos of players, teams and events. These offer an opportunity to find a genealogical history of family members who played sports. My store also carries other sports related paper ephemera. Add me as a favorite seller so you will be notified when new listings are added.


This rare and original sports page came from an October 13, 1910 edition of a Washington State, Bellingham Morning Reveille newspaper. The page features a photo of Cy Young with a headline and caption that announces that he will retire at the close of the 1910 baseball season. The page also contains a photo of what was supposed to be Napoleon Lajoie but in reality it is Cleveland Pitcher Addie Joss. The headline and caption announce that both Ty Cobb and Lajoie will both receive Chalmers Automobiles as a reward for one of the closest and controversial batting championships in the American League. A third photo is of Philadelphia Athletics caption Harry Davis whoo team won the 1910 American League pennant.
