Which early papers published play-by-plays?

I know the GB Press Gazette did in the 30's, generally compiled - I assume - by Arthur Bystrom, as they were often at the end of his articles.

What, if any, other papers did this?

I think the Canton Repository did as well. I have always wanted to see Jim Thorpe's entire career record compiled as best as possible from those PBP's. The reason I believe they did so is, I recall a visit to the PFHOF many years (decades) ago as a young kid and they had a rack with newspapers under glass. I was flicking through the rack and I noticed PBP's of at least one Bulldog game. I suspect the Hall staff later decided the papers in the glass frames were getting too much electric light (they were all very yellow) and probably pulled them from such display to try and preserve them.

Portsmouth Times, Pottsville Republican, Racine Journal-News, Rock Island Argus and Staten Island Advance were the main ones during the 1920-32 era. The Canton Repository occasionally did it 1920-23. Though The Canton Daily News had better detailed articles than the Repository back then.
