THE NEW YORK TIMES, November 17, 1939
* Al 'Scarface" Capone freed from prison
* Chicago gangster becomes a free man
The top of the front page has a two column heading: "Al Capone Is Freed From Prison; Guarded in Baltimore Hospital" with subhead. (see) First report coverage continues on page 3 with a photo of Capone leaving the penitentiary in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Forty-four pages, some various cutouts throughout on unrelated inside pages, none on the front page, light staining and a little wear at the margins, otherwise good.
