October 03, 1931

THE NEW YORK TIMES, October 3, 1931

* Sir Thomas Lipton death (1st report)
* Tea founder & America's Cup enthusiast
* Charles Lindbergh crashes on Yangste River
* World Series of baseball (game 2)


The front page has a one column heading: "SIR THOMAS LIPTON DIES AT 81 IN LONDON" with subheads. (see) First report coverage continues inside with nice photo of Lipton. Lengthy text. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Also on the front page is a one column heading: "LINDBERGHS' PLANE CAPSIZES IN YANGTSE" with subheads. (see)
This issue also has reporting on the 2nd game of the World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Athletics. Coverage begins on the front page with much more in the sport's section.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 38 pages, light toning at the margins, a little spine wear, generally in very nice condition.
