Prohibition begins in 2 days...
NEW YORK TIMES, Jan. 15, 1920
- Prohibition about to start in United States
- No more beer or liquor
The front page has a one column heading: "DRY BAN ON CIDER AND FRUIT JUICES" with subheads. (see) Coverage 2 days prior to the start of prohibition in America. Prohibition would last for nearly 14 years before being repealed. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete in 32 pages, light toning at the margins, a little irregular at the spine from disbinding, generally nice.
