THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 29, 1935

  • Abyssinia Crisis heightens
  • Kingdom of Italy
  • Empire of Ethiopia

The top of the front page has a three column headline: "ETHIOPIANS ATTACK ITALIANS IN DARKNESS, KILLING FORTY; EMPEROR REPLIES TO LEAGUE" with many subheads. (see) Lengthy coverage continues on pages 6 & 7 with related map.
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. Nice condition.
