THE NEW YORK TIMES, January 6, 1943

* Dr. George Washington Carver death
* Negro scientist & educator
* Born into slavery


Page 25 has one column headings: "DR. CARVER IS DEAD; NEGRO SCIENTIST" "Son of Slave Parents Who Made Experiments as Member of Tuskegee Faculty" and more with one column photo of him. First report coverage on the death of George Washington Carver.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 42 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.
