St. Paul Pioneer Press Dispatch Newspaper (October 13, 1987)

This is a vintage newspaper, specifically the St. Paul Pioneer Press Dispatch, from Tuesday, October 13, 1987. The front page's prominent headline reads "How 'bout those Twins! World Series is next," indicating it was published shortly after the Minnesota Twins clinched a spot in the World Series. A large photograph depicts the Twins players celebrating. Other notable headlines on the front page include "North Stars fall to N.Y. Rangers," "'Grand old man' Alf Landon dies," "Kid's backyard dream comes true in Detroit" with a photo of Joe Souhan, "Dome crowd hails AL champs," "Chimera Theatre faces final curtain Sunday," and "Costa Rican president wins Nobel Peace Prize" with a photo of Oscar Arias. The newspaper appears to be printed on standard newsprint, which is thin and prone to yellowing and fragility over time. Multiple folds are clearly visible, causing creases throughout the page. The edges show some signs of handling and potential minor tears, typical of a newspaper's age and use. The ink appears largely intact with no significant smudging visible in the image. The overall condition reflects its age, showing natural aging and wear associated with paper products from the late 1980s. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures beyond the newspaper's masthead and copyright information inherent to the publication.
