Need help from someone with old newspaper access
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi - a fellow Giants collector just picked up this 11' x 15" original artwork. It was done by Phil Bissell, a cartoonist for the Boston Globe from 1953-65. Phil's actual career as a cartoonist spanned from 1949-87. He is said to have done 60,000 cartoons and was the creator of the New England Patriots old mascot/logo, Pat Patriot. Anyway, the bottom of this piece is marked "Friday Sports," making me think it was set to run in The Boston Globe on October 12, 1962. Game 6 was originally scheduled for October 11 but rain delays in NY and SF (torrential) ended up pushing Game 6 to October 15. Do any of you have a way to access the October 12, 1962 edition of the Boston Globe? I think some members of Net54 pay for old newspaper access. I would love to either see a picture of the page or get a link to the page. Thanks!!

Nice work.

Just read the article on the far right by the AP. Big oops since the 1963 ASG was played in Cleveland, not Minneapolis. I wonder if that was an error in the story or if the venue got changed.
