October 16, 1944
THE NEW YORK TIMES, October 16, 1944
* Erwin Rommel death
* The Desert Fox
* World War II field Marshall
The front page has one column headings: "DEATH OF ROMMEL REVEALED BY NAZIS" "Marshal Has Been Reported Dead After Strafing of Car in France in July" Most of the 1 1/2 columns of text is on page 8 with photo of Rommel. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 30 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions.Very nice condition.
