TAUNTON DAILY GAZETTE, Taunton, Massachusetts, January 13, 1912
* Lawrence, Massachusetts textile strike riot starts
* Became known as the Bread and Roses strike
This 10 page newspaper has two column headlines on the front page that include: "LAWRENCE STRIKE LIKELY TO BE SPREAD", "Nearly Twenty-Two Thousand Out There Now and Fifteen Thousand More Are Ready to Strike Today--Situation Is Becoming Intense" and more (see images). Other news of the day including sports and advertisements. Usual browning with some margin wear with little unrelated text loss, otherwise good. Should be handled with care.
