August 20, 1935

THE NEW YORK TIMES, August 20, 1935

* Will Rogers & Wiley Post
* Airplane crash - deaths


The top of page 17: "BODIES OF FLIERS REACH CALIFORNIA" with subheads and two related photos, one of the wreckage and the other of the Eskimo that told the story.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 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.
