November 10, 1939

THE NEW YORK TIMES, November 10, 1939

* Adolph Hitler assassination attempt
* Bürgerbräukeller beer hall in Munich
* The hunt for suspects in Nazi Germany


The front page has a five column headline: "MAJOR NAZI OFFENSIVE FORECAST" with subheads that include: "Germany Is Tense" "Shocked by Munich Blast, People Now Feel Blow at Britain Is Near" "Many Arrested In Hunt" and more. Much more on page 3 with related photos. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
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. Very nice condition.
