| Description:
Framed
front page of the Chicago Tribune edition of November
3,1948 proclaiming Dewey Defeats Truman. Arguably the
most famous newspaper every published. The error is now
internationally famous. The Tribune staff, based on the
early returns, decided Dewey would be the next
President.
After the
newspaper was delivered to the street, more returns came
in and showed that Truman would be the ultimate winner
and be reelected as President. The already delivered
"error" newspapers were gathered for return by staff
members sent out to pick them up from newsstands and
homes in the Chicago area. Nicely framed and matted.
Original copies are selling for $2,000 or more at
auction.
This is a
beautifully produced reproduction of the front page of
this incredible collectible newspaper. It is very nicely
framed and includes a gold engraved nameplate with
description. Perfect for office, library or gift item.
Price includes careful shipment and packing of this
large 18x24" framed item.
