**Date:** Friday, September 23, 1988
**Headline:** "GOT IT! Mets Clinch, Next Stop L.A.?"
**Framed Dimensions:** 19.75 x 15.75**About This Item:**
Up for sale is a genuine, 100% original historic front page section of Newsday from September 23, 1988, capturing the morning after the legendary 1980s New York Mets officially clinched the National League East division pennant. This is a true vintage paper, featuring the authentic industrial press pinholes/indents along the bottom margin and beautiful, natural aging/toning of the wood-pulp newsprint over the last 38 years. Perfect piece of nostalgia for any die-hard Amazin' Mets collector. **Condition Details (Please Read & See Photos):**
• **Newspaper:** The newspaper page itself remains entirely intact, structurally solid, and in excellent condition with clear, sharp text and vibrant historic graphic artwork.
• **Frame/Matting:** The piece comes professionally matted in a classic wood frame. Please note that the frame previously came into contact with moisture. A small amount of water seeped behind the glass at the bottom, causing some minor water staining/discoloration on the upper portion of the paper and mat.
• The frame backing is still strong, secure, and ready to hang immediately. Please review all listing photographs closely to assess the cosmetic water marks. The item is sold exactly as pictured. **Shipping & Handling:**
Will be packed with extreme care using heavy-duty bubble wrap and a secure, flat shipping box to ensure safe transit to your doorstep. Combined shipping is available if you purchase any of my other items!
