This 18 page newspaper has a small one column heading on the front page: "Edison and Tesla To Get Nobel Prizes"
Other news of the day. Usual browning with some margin wear and chipping, otherwise good. Should be handled with care.
wikipedia notes: Since the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Marconi for radio in 1909, Thomas Edison and Tesla were mentioned in a press dispatch as potential laureates to share the Nobel Prize of 1915, leading to one of several Nobel Prize controversies. Some sources have claimed that because of their animosity toward each other neither was given the award, despite their scientific contributions; that each sought to minimize the other's achievements and right to win the award; that both refused to ever accept the award if the other received it first; and that both rejected any possibility of sharing it.
