ILLUSTRATED CURRENT NEWS 11 vintage GOLF Football Howard Hughes Pearl Harbor ICN

Description

This auction is for the eleven (11) items pictured and described here. Each is a
12.5" x 19" issue of the Illustrated Current News
- a one-page news publication that was typically posted in store windows to attract potential customers.
I do not know if these are original issue, or reproductions
. They have a bit of a glossy finish, and are in very good condition, with no creasing, holes, or other damage. They do not have folds down the middle, as some I've seen listed have. I picked up a collection a few years ago, and decided to sell some of them in lots now.
The items include:
Three of the sheets feature golf, including some of the biggest names in the sport -
Byron Nelson, Gene Sarazan, Ben Hogan, Sam Snead
, and others.
Two focus on horse racing, with the
Kentucky Derby
. The years of these 5 (in this and prior bullet) are 1934, 1940 (2), and 1941 (2)
Two sheets feature college football events, including the
Notre Dame victory over Army in 1940
, and the
Fordham University
offensive line in 1936, described as "seven blocks of granite."
Four posters involve planes and flight. The years are 1935, 1928 (2), and 1942:
1. Howard Hughes' record-breaking flight around the world
2. Will Rogers and Wiley Post - last photo before plane crashed in Alaska
3. T.W.A. Sky Chief flying over the French ship Normandie
4. Pearl Harbor attack scenes, including the U.S.S. Arizona, and the U.S. destroyers Shaw and Downes
Very cool collectables, particularly if you are a history buff or fan of this era!
