Description: We are fortunate to have discovered another original Dewey Defeats Truman newspaper. This famous edition of the Chicago Tribune of November 3, 1948 is the original, authentic and complete thirty-two page first section of this iconic newspaper -including the iconic Dewey Defeats Truman headline. This is arguably the most famous and sought after newspaper of all time. Absolutely original. When the decision to print this paper was made, returns were coming in very slowly and time was running out before the deadline for the edition. The Tribune staff, based on the early returns, decided Dewey would be the next President. After the newspaper was delivered to the street, more returns came in and showed that Truman would be the ultimate winner and be reelected as President. The already delivered "error" newspapers were gathered for return by staff members sent out to pick them up from newsstands and homes in the Chicago area. It also has the paragraph of type in the upside down position since the newspaper workers were obviously in a hurry to get the edition out to the newsstands.
