THE NEW YORK TIMES, April 30, 1932
* Alice Liddell Hargreaves visits America
* Alice in Wonderland fame
* The Mad Hatter
Page 17 has a one column heading: "REAL ALICE PREFERS THE CHESHIRE CAT" with subheads and photo of Liddell arriving from England. (see) I suspect this is one of the few publications to report this particular event as other titles in our inventory do not.
Also on the same page is: "'MAD HATTER' MAD? MILLIKAN DOUBTS IT" with subheads. (see)
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 32 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.
