Charles Lindbergh Baby Kidnapping Trial...



Item # 664293

October 16, 1935

THE NEW YORK TIMES, Oct. 16, 1934
 
* Charles Lindbergh Baby Kidnapping Trial
* Bruno Hauptmann on the stand
* Court testimony


The top of the front page has a three column headline: "HAUPTMANN ON THE STAND SHOUTS DENIAL OF MURDER; HE AND WIFE OFFER ALIBI" with subheads. (see) More inside with testimony.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 48 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. A little creasing in unrelated area, otherwise very nice.
