Chicago Sunday Tribune large color sections for 1914 & 1916 - 6 issues -- larger format

Chicago: Chicago Tribune, 1914-1916. 7 issues of the 8 pp. color sections of the Chicago Sunday Tribune. These measure 23.5 x 18 inches and are in good or better condition with usual tanning and occasionally some light tears to folds or edges; we've repaired a few of the shorter tears with pH-neutral tissue tape. In 1917 the Tribune went to a smaller format for the color sections, but these larger ones are exciting finds.
