CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, February 18, 1936
* Hiram Percy Maxim death (1st report)
* Famous inventor of the gun silencer
* re. Jack Machine Gun McGurn's assassination
The top of page 14 has a one column heading: "HIRAM P. MAXIM, GUN SILENCER INVENTOR, DIES" with subhead and photo of small photo of Maxim. (see) First report coverage on the death of famous inventor Hiram Percy Maxim. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete with all 30 pages, this is the "rag edition" printed on very high quality newsprint meant for institutional holdings. In great condition as such, a few small binding holes at the spine.
