Softcover. Condition: Good. Various paginations. 41 cm. Numerous b&w illustrations. Tape spine with marbled paper covers. Bottom front corner chipped. Other chips and tears to edges. Small hole in front cover. Small holes and tears inside. Small section cut out of bottom of p. 855 in May 3rd issue. Includes July 5, May 24, May 17, May 10, May 3, April 26, April 19, March 29, March 8, February 1, and January 25, 1886. January issue may be of most interest, as it features a front cover picture of Jack Dempsey, "the gallant and unconquered American lad who is champion middle-weight pugilist of the world." Dempsey was one of the greatest pound-for-pound boxers who ever fought in the ring, ably fighting men 10-25 pounds heavier than himself. Along with Jack McAuliffe and John L. Sullivan, he was one of the greatest boxers of the 1880s. Articles about Dempsey appear in other issues. Besides sports, this newspaper carried news about sensational crimes.
