Just found this today: http://www.paperofrecord.com/
Registration is free. This is an incredible repository of various newspapers (microfilmed and viewable as pdf files).
Included is every issue of The Sporting News from 1886 to 2003. So, if you wanna relive a favorite past season, it's all there.
(A personal comment: I spent some time perusing pages from 1947. Considering the conservative opinions of SN's then-editor, I wasn't surprised when Leo Durocher's suspension got a bigger headline than did Jackie Robinson's debut.)
