[CQ-Contest] Early Contests?...

[Jimk8mr at aol.com]

Can  anyone help with some research? When was the first amateur radio 
contest? Does  anyone have any details of early contests? Reply direct.
 
I was once told that the first contest happened when the third ham got his  
license, prompting a contest by the other two to be the first to work him.
