| The pictures below show larger front and back views of this 1942 New England Sportsmen's and Boat Show Advertisement & Ticket Stub. This page had once been in a scrap book. On the back is paper loss and extra lined paper from when someone removed it from a scrapbook page. This event took place during World War II. The front has a nice colorful image of a Native American Indian with costume and headdress. At the lower left corner, the ticket stub from the Sportsman event is pasted to the page covering part of the text. What can be read on this side reads as follows: AMERICA'S OUTSTANDING SPORTING EVENT
