Minneapolis Laker News, published for
the 1949-50 season I believe and put out by the National
Basketball Association.
Collectible magazine with 36 pages. This is loaded with
news and articles on the team and its players, with Vern
Mikkelsen on the cover.
Arild Verner Agerskov Mikkelsen (October 21, 1928 –
November 21, 2013) was an American professional
basketball player. One of the National Basketball
Association's first power forwards in the 1950s,
he was known for his tenacious defense. Also an ironman,
he played in 699 out of a possible 704 during his
career.
This shows thumbnail photos of the Baltimore Bullets
in the front as well as the Minneapolis Lakers at the
rear. Article on Vern Gardner from the University of
Utah...but photo shows the name Howard Dallmar. Must be a
blooper.
Tony Jaros of the Lakers is photographed and in a write up
on page. 31. Arnie Ferrin (The Broom), States and write up
on pages 28 and 29. 'A Picture for your Album' full page
photograph of Andy Phillip, Chicago Stags.
Loaded with pages of killer beer ads, soda, cigarettes,
sports shops, local business's, sports, restaurants and
cafes, television and more for the collector of ephemera.
This is in great shape for the years. complete with staple
binding, unmarked, but book shows some minor wrinkling and
a center crease.
Please be sure to have your questions answered prior to
making your purchase. I will ensure this is packaged
carefully for you.
Thanks for looking.
