This lot offers the cover page and many internal pages of the October 20, 1922 Columbus Evening Dispatch featuring the new stadium, Ohio Stadium; subsequently and affectionally coined The Horseshoe. What makes this particular newspaper edition so special is the rarity of this newspaper version, image, and text graphics. A more common newspaper version (common used lightly of course) for this date’s “Stadium Edition” can be found from time-to-time but this version is exceedingly scarce.

The condition is POOR as the paper is very dry and brittle and pieces of the paper do flake off the edges when handled so extreme care will be needed with further handling. Furthermore, the paper is split down the center horizontal fold; though with professional archival framing, further damage can be prevented and could be displayed properly in a museum quality presentation.
