THE NEW YORK TIMES, December 27, 1933

* Norman Thibodeaux - Negro
* Lynching mob escape ?


The top of the back page has a one column heading: "MOB VICTIM TELLS OF BEING 'LYNCHED'" with subheads. (see)  First report coverage on Norman Thibodeaux, 19 year old Negro, claiming he escaped a lynch mob in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 40 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. Nice condition.
