(Disney, 1973) A prop newspaper seen in the feature film The World's Greatest Athlete. The film was one of the few major sports films to highlight track and field, and stars Jan-Michael Vincent as the athlete Nanu. The newspaper celebrates Nanu bringing the championship home to Merrivale. The article text repeats throughout the 8-page paper. In addition to the titles on the cover, the interior of the paper has two different page versions which repeat. Measuring 11.5"x17" when folded, the paper is in good condition with some edge-wear from use including a few small tears.
