THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 22, 1944.
* Operation Valkyrie failure
* Adolph Hitler assassination attempt
* German officers rounded up
The front page has a nice banner headline: "NAZIS BLOCK PLOT TO SEIZE GOVERNMENT" with subheads. (see) Lengthy text.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day with much more on World War II. Complete in 28 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.
