Dewey Defeats Truman Original & Authentic Newspaper - Professionally Framed

We are fortunate to have discovered another complete and original copy of this famous edition of the Chicago Tribune of November 3, 1948. It is the original and authentic newspaper with all pages complete in the main section. .

This is arguably the most famous and sought after newspaper of all time. When the decision to print this paper was made, returns were coming in very slowly and time was running out before the deadline for the edition. 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. It also has the paragraph of type in the upside down position as all original examples have since the newspaper workers in haste to get the edition to the newsstands made the error. Original editions of this newspaper are becoming increasingly scarce.

This is only the twentieth copy of this historic paper that we have owned in 37+ years Here is a description of the condition. It is not the complete paper, but it is the complete first secion. The paper is lightly toned and some paper stretch and characteristics folds. . There are no significant areas of rips or tears. Overall we would rate this paper as very good.
