September 18, 1908
THE OMAHA EVENING BEE, Omaha, Nebraska, September 18, 1908 This 16 page newspaper has one column headlines on the front page that include: "WRIGHT NOT SERIOUSLY INJURED" and more. (see)

Nice, lengthy article on the flight by Wright and Selfridge in which the first human fatality occurred by a powered airplane.

Other news of the day. This issue has usual browning with little margin wear & tear but no text loss. Should be handled with care.
