THE NEW YORK TIMES, New York, November 7, 1943

Near the bottom of the front page is a two column heading that reads: "Vatican Radio Confirms Bombing; Mosaic Shop, Governor's Home Hit" First report coverage on the air raid by just one German airplane (four bombs) on Vatican City. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news of the day with much more on World War II. Complete 1st section only with all 60 pages, rag edition in very nice condition.
