THE NEW YORK TIMES, September 19, 1932
* Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
* The Mahatma food strike begins (eve)
The top of the front page has a two column heading: "Gandhi Cuts Down Food in Training for Fast; May Refuse to Leave Jail on British Terms" Coverage on the eve on the 6-day hunger strike beginning. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 36 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.
