THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 2, 1947
* "The Most Beautiful Suicide" (1st report)
* Evelyn McHale leaps off Empire State Building
Page 23 has a small and somewhat discrete one column heading: "Empire State Leap Ends Life Of Girl, 20" (see) Unfortunate for the small inside report here but it is what is is, still a first report in the New York Times.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 46 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.
