A far more notorious historical aspect is the 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese, which occurred near this station.

Booklet: "The Ulster County Gazette and its Illegitimate Offspring" by R.W.G. Vail, 1951  This "infamous" newspaper dated January 4, 1800 certainly ranks among the most commonly found of the many reprint newspapers on the market today. The N.Y. Herald of April 15, 1865 would be a contender as well. To this date only two genuine issues have been located (American Antiquarian Society & the Library of Congress) while thousands & thousands of the various reprint editions have come to light. This 42 page booklet explores the history of this curious issue and includes photos of many of the different editions which have been produced through the years. An uncommon publication which would be a nice edition to any early newspaper library. Rarely offered as long out of print. Paper covers, very nice condition.

THE NEW YORK TIMES, January 29, 1951  * Don Gentile - American fighter plane ace killed  * Nevada starts it's Atomic bomb tests  This 38 page newspaper has a two column headline on the front page: "Don Gentile Killed in Jet Crash; U.S. Ace in Europe Shot Down 19" with photo. Also one column headlines on the front that include: "2D ATOMIC BLAST IN 24 HOURS JOLTS WIDE NEVADA AREA" "Flash Reaches 200 Miles" and more. Other news of the day throughout. Rag edition in great condition. wikipedia notes: Major Dominic Salvatore "Don" Gentile (6 December 1920 - 28 January 1951) was an officer in the United States Army Air Force and, later, the United States Air Force (USAF). His decorations include the Distinguished Service Cross, the Silver Star, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal, the Presidential Unit Citation (US), the World War Two Victory Medal, the American Campaign Medal, the British Distinguished Flying Cross, the British Star, the Eagle Squadron Crest, and other foreign medals. Born in Piqua, Ohio in 1920, after a fascination with flying as a child, his father provided him with his own plane, an Aerosport Biplane. He managed to log over 300 hours flying time by July 1941, when he attempted to join the Army Air Force. The U.S. military required two years of college for its pilots, which Gentile did not have, therefore Gentile originally enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force and was posted to the UK in 1941. Gentile flew the Supermarine Spitfire Mark V with No. 133 Squadron, one of the famed "Eagle Squadron" during 1942. He claimed two kills (an FW-1 90 and a JU-88) in his time with the squadron, both on 1 August 1942. In September 1942, the Eagle squadrons transferred to the USAAF, becoming the 4th Fighter Group. Gentile became a flight commander in September 1943, now flying the P-47 Thunderbolt. Having been Spitfire pilots, Gentile and the other pilots of the 4th were displeased when they transitioned to the heavy P-47. By late 1943 Group Commander Col. Don Blakeslee pushed for re-equipment with the lighter, more maneuverable, P-51 Mustang. Conversion to the P-51B in early 1944 allowed Gentile to build an impressive tally of 15 additional aircraft destroyed during January-April 1944. He was the top scoring 8th Air Force ace when he crashed his personal P-51, named "Shangri La", on April 13, 1944 while stunting over the 4th FG's airfield at Debden for a group of assembled press reporters and movie cameras. Col. Blakeslee immediately grounded Major Gentile as a result, and he was sent back to the US for a tour selling War Bonds. His final score was 21.8 air kills and 3 damaged, with 6 ground kills, in 350 combat hours flown. After the war, he stayed with the Air Force, as a test pilot at Wright Field, as a Training Officer in the Fighter Gunnery Program, and as a student officer at the Air Tactical School. In June 1949, Gentile enrolled as an undergraduate studying military science at the University of Maryland. In January 1951, he was killed when he crashed in a Lockheed T-33 trainer in Forestville, Maryland. Gentile Air Station in Kettering, Ohio was named in his honor in 1962. The installation closed in 1996. Winston Churchill called Maj. Gentile and his wingman, Capt. John T. Godfrey, Damon and Pythias, after the mythical, Greek heroes.

THE NEW YORK TIMES, February 28, 1951  * The very first Pan American Games open  This 56 page newspaper has banner headline on page 34: "U.S. Victor in Track, Baseball and Basketball as Pan-American Games Open" with subheads. (see) Tells of Day 1 of the very first Pan American games. Other news of the day throughout. Rag edition in nice condition. wikipedia notes: The idea of holding a Pan American Games grew from the Central American Games first organised in the 1920s. In 1932, a first proposal was made for Pan American Games, and the Pan American Sports Organization was established. The first Games were scheduled to be staged in Buenos Aires in 1943, but World War II caused them to be postponed until 1951. Since then, the Games have been held every four years, with participation at the most recent event at over 5,000 athletes from 42 countries. Map of countries that participate in the Pan American Games However, the Pan American Games have lost status, particularly in the United States, and have not received much attention in the sporting press as of late in the United States and Canada. The Americans had sent their "B" team to Winnipeg in 1999, in contrast to the 1967 edition where they fielded many rising stars such as Mark Spitz. No major US networks covered the Games, while newspapers only sent second-string reporters instead and the stories never made front page news. Many high profile athletes, of all nationalities, such as US champion sprinters and Brazilian football players, were in Europe during these Pan Am games, taking part in professional events. South American nations (with the exception of Uruguay) did not send their under-23 male soccer teams after the organizing committee refused to pay appearance money to CONMEBOL. In Canada, there was plenty of coverage, including a nightly two-hour program on CBC, with an additional hour on local affiliate CBWT, French-language coverage on Radio-Canada, plus daytime coverage on TSN. By 2003, the Pan American Games were once again neglected by the media. Generally, the Pan American Games receive plenty of attention in most Latin American countries. The 2007 edition, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has prompted the Organizing Committee to restore important venues such as the Estádio do Maracanã and build a new Olympic Village.

Light browning at the margins with minor spine wear, otherwise in good condition. wikipedia notes: Julius Rosenberg (May 12, 1918 – June 19, 1953) and Ethel Greenglass Rosenberg (September 28, 1915 – June 19, 1953) were American communists who were executed after having been found guilty of conspiracy to commit espionage. The charges were in relation to the passing of information about the atomic bomb to the Soviet Union. Their execution was the first of civilians, for espionage, in United States history.[1] Julius Rosenberg wrote to Emanuel Bloch on 19 June 1953 that "we are the first victims of American Fascism."[2] The Rosenbergs were executed in 1953 for passing atomic secrets to the Soviet Union. Since then, decoded Soviet cables have appeared to confirm that Julius acted as a courier and recruiter for the Soviets, but doubts remain about the level of Ethel's involvement.[3][4] However, the other spies that were caught were not executed. Ethel's brother, David Greenglass, who supplied documents to Julius from Los Alamos, served 10 years of his 15 year sentence.[5] Harry Gold served 15 years in Federal prison as the courier for Klaus Fuchs, who supplied much more detailed information to the Soviets on the atomic bomb.[6] Morton Sobell, who was tried with the Rosenbergs, served 17 years and 9 months.[7] In 2008, Sobell admitted he was a spy and confirmed Julius Rosenberg was "in a conspiracy that delivered to the Soviets classified military and industrial information and what the American government described as the secret to the atomic bomb."

Light browning with minor margin wear, otherwise in good condition. wikipedia notes: June 22 of 1949, Walcott got another chance to become world heavyweight champion, when he and Ezzard Charles met for the title left vacant by Louis. Charles prevailed, however, by decision in 15 rounds. Walcott, disappointed but eager to see his dream of being a champion come true, went on, and in 1950, he won four of his five bouts, including a three round knock-out of future world light heavyweight champion Harold Johnson. On March 7 of 1951, he and Charles fought once again, and Charles retained the world title with a 15 round decision. But on July 18, he joined a handful of boxers who claimed the world title in their fifth try, when he knocked out Charles in seven rounds in Pittsburgh, to finally become world's heavyweight champion, at the relatively old age of 37. This made him the oldest man ever to win the world heavyweight crown (a distinction he would hold until George Foreman won the title at age 45 in 1994).

This 42 page newspaper has a two column headline near the bottom of the front page:"Rosenberg Says He Is True to U. S. But Won't Tell Spy Jury if He Is Red". Other news of the day throughout including reports on the Alger Hiss verdict and the Chicago Capone gang. Rag edition in great condition. wikipedia notes: The trial of the Rosenbergs and Sobell began on March 6, 1951. The judge was Irving Kaufman and the attorney for the Rosenbergs was Emanuel Hirsch Bloch. The prosecution's primary witness, David Greenglass, stated that his sister Ethel typed notes containing U.S. nuclear secrets in the Rosenberg apartment in September 1945. He also testified that he turned over to Julius Rosenberg a sketch of the cross-section of an implosion-type atom bomb (the "Fat Man" bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, as opposed to a bomb with the "gun method" triggering device as used in the "Little Boy" bomb dropped on Hiroshima).[citation needed] The notes allegedly typed by Ethel apparently contained little that was relevant to the Soviet atomic bomb project and some suggest Ethel was indicted along with Julius was so that the prosecution could use her to pressure Julius into giving up the names of others who were involved.[13] However, neither Julius nor Ethel Rosenberg named anyone else and during testimony each asserted their right under the U.S. Constitution's Fifth Amendment to not incriminate themselves whenever asked about involvement in the Communist Party or with its members. Then-U.S. Deputy Attorney General William P. Rogers, when later asked about the failure of the indictment of Ethel to leverage a full confession by Julius, reportedly said, "She called our bluff." The Rosenbergs were convicted on March 29, 1951, and on April 5 were sentenced to death by Judge Irving Kaufman under Section 2 of the Espionage Act of 1917, 50 U.S. Code 32 (now 18 U.S. Code 794), which prohibits transmitting or attempting to transmit to a foreign government information "relating to the national defense."[citation needed] The conviction helped to fuel Senator Joseph McCarthy's investigations into anti-American activities by U.S. citizens. While their devotion to the Communist cause was well-documented, the Rosenbergs denied the espionage charges even as they faced the electric chair. The Rosenbergs were the only two American civilians to be executed for espionage-related activity during the Cold War. In imposing the death penalty, Kaufman noted that he held them responsible not only for espionage but also for the deaths of the Korean War: “     I consider your crime worse than murder...I believe your conduct in putting into the hands of the Russians the A-Bomb years before our best scientists predicted Russia would perfect the bomb has already caused, in my opinion, the Communist aggression in Korea, with the resultant casualties exceeding 50,000 and who knows but that millions more of innocent people may pay the price of your treason. Indeed, by your betrayal you undoubtedly have altered the course of history to the disadvantage of our country. No one can say that we do not live in a constant state of tension. We have evidence of your treachery all around us every day for the civilian defense activities throughout the nation are aimed at preparing us for an atom bomb attack.    ” After the publication of an investigative series in The National Guardian and the formation of the National Committee to Secure Justice in the Rosenberg Case, some Americans came to believe both Rosenbergs were innocent or received too harsh a punishment, and a grassroots campaign was started to try to stop the couple's execution. Between the trial and the executions there were widespread protests and claims of anti-Semitism.[citation needed] Nobel Prize winner Jean-Paul Sartre called the case "a legal lynching which smears with blood a whole nation. By killing the Rosenbergs, you have quite simply tried to halt the progress of science by human sacrifice. Magic, witch-hunts, auto-da-fés, sacrifices — we are here getting to the point: your country is sick with fear... you are afraid of the shadow of your own bomb."[17] Others, including non-Communists such as Albert Einstein and Nobel-Prize-winning physical chemist Harold Urey,[citation needed] as well as Communists or left-leaning artists such as Nelson Algren, Dashiell Hammett, Jean Cocteau, Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, protested the position of the American government in what some[who?] termed America's Dreyfus Affair.[citation needed] In May 1951, Pablo Picasso wrote for French newspaper L’Humanité, "The hours count. The minutes count. Do not let this crime against humanity take place."[18] Pope Pius XII also condemned the execution.[19] The all-black International Longshoremen’s Association Local 968 stopped working for a day in protest.[20] Cinema artists such as Fritz Lang and Bertolt Brecht registered their protest.[21]Pope Pius XII appealed to President Dwight D. Eisenhower to spare the couple, but Eisenhower refused on February 11, 1953, and all other appeals were also unsuccessful. Their case has been at the center of the controversy over Communism in the United States ever since, with supporters steadfastly maintaining that their conviction was an egregious example of political persecution (see McCarthyism) and likening it to the witch hunts that marred Salem and medieval Europe (a comparison that provided the inspiration for Arthur Miller's critically acclaimed play, The Crucible). On September 12, 2008, co-defendant Morton Sobell admitted that he and Julius Rosenberg were guilty of spying for the Soviet Union. He believed Ethel was aware of the espionage, but did not actively participate.

Between the trial and the executions there were widespread protests and claims of anti-Semitism.[citation needed] Nobel Prize winner Jean-Paul Sartre called the case "a legal lynching which smears with blood a whole nation. By killing the Rosenbergs, you have quite simply tried to halt the progress of science by human sacrifice. Magic, witch-hunts, auto-da-fés, sacrifices — we are here getting to the point: your country is sick with fear... you are afraid of the shadow of your own bomb."[17] Others, including non-Communists such as Albert Einstein and Nobel-Prize-winning physical chemist Harold Urey,[citation needed] as well as Communists or left-leaning artists such as Nelson Algren, Dashiell Hammett, Jean Cocteau, Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, protested the position of the American government in what some[who?] termed America's Dreyfus Affair.[citation needed] In May 1951, Pablo Picasso wrote for French newspaper L’Humanité, "The hours count. The minutes count. Do not let this crime against humanity take place."[18] Pope Pius XII also condemned the execution.[19] The all-black International Longshoremen’s Association Local 968 stopped working for a day in protest.[20] Cinema artists such as Fritz Lang and Bertolt Brecht registered their protest.[21]Pope Pius XII appealed to President Dwight D. Eisenhower to spare the couple, but Eisenhower refused on February 11, 1953, and all other appeals were also unsuccessful. Their case has been at the center of the controversy over Communism in the United States ever since, with supporters steadfastly maintaining that their conviction was an egregious example of political persecution (see McCarthyism) and likening it to the witch hunts that marred Salem and medieval Europe (a comparison that provided the inspiration for Arthur Miller's critically acclaimed play, The Crucible). On September 12, 2008, co-defendant Morton Sobell admitted that he and Julius Rosenberg were guilty of spying for the Soviet Union. He believed Ethel was aware of the espionage, but did not actively participate.

(see) Other news of the day. Light browning at the margins with minor spine wear, otherwise in very nice condition. wikipedia notes: Julius Rosenberg (May 12, 1918 – June 19, 1953) and Ethel Greenglass Rosenberg (September 28, 1915 – June 19, 1953) were American communists who were executed after having been found guilty of conspiracy to commit espionage. The charges were in relation to the passing of information about the atomic bomb to the Soviet Union. Their execution was the first of civilians, for espionage, in United States history.[1] Julius Rosenberg wrote to Emanuel Bloch on 19 June 1953 that "we are the first victims of American Fascism."[2] The Rosenbergs were executed in 1953 for passing atomic secrets to the Soviet Union. Since then, decoded Soviet cables have appeared to confirm that Julius acted as a courier and recruiter for the Soviets, but doubts remain about the level of Ethel's involvement.[3][4] However, the other spies that were caught were not executed. Ethel's brother, David Greenglass, who supplied documents to Julius from Los Alamos, served 10 years of his 15 year sentence.[5] Harry Gold served 15 years in Federal prison as the courier for Klaus Fuchs, who supplied much more detailed information to the Soviets on the atomic bomb.[6] Morton Sobell, who was tried with the Rosenbergs, served 17 years and 9 months.[7] In 2008, Sobell admitted he was a spy and confirmed Julius Rosenberg was "in a conspiracy that delivered to the Soviets classified military and industrial information and what the American government described as the secret to the atomic bomb."

No ! Old Soldier Joe KO's Foe with subhead: "18,000 Cheer Savold Defeat" with nice action photo. (see) This would be Louis' last win by knockout.. Nice to have from the city where he started his career. Other news of the day. Rag edition, small binding holes along spine, otherwise in very nice condition. wikipedia notes: Joseph Louis Barrow (May 13, 1914 - April 12, 1981), better known as Joe Louis, was the world heavyweight boxing champion from 1937 to 1949. Nicknamed the Brown Bomber, Louis helped elevate boxing out of a nadir in popularity in the post-Jack Dempsey era by establishing a reputation as an honest, hardworking fighter at a time when the sport was dominated by gambling interests. Louis' championship reign lasted 140 consecutive months, during which he participated in 27 championship fights, including 25 successful title defenses – all records for the heavyweight division. In 2005, Louis was named the greatest heavyweight of all time by the International Boxing Research Organization, and was ranked number one on Ring Magazine's list of 100 Greatest Punchers of All Time and is widely regarded to be the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time. Louis' cultural impact was felt well outside the ring. Louis is widely regarded as the first African American to achieve the status of a nationwide hero within the United States, and was also a focal point of anti-Nazi sentiment leading up to and during World War II. He also was instrumental in integrating the game of golf, breaking the sport's color barrier in America by appearing under a sponsor's exemption in a PGA event in 1952.

Yankees which didn't pull Giants through but will make fuel for the hot-stove league." Despite having the report, the Giants still lost the World Series to the Yankees. Also in this issue is a visit of Queen Elizabeth visiting Ottawa and a page of Red Skelton with all his different family faces. Cover is loose and worn, two inside pages are loose and tattered at the outside edge.
