CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, September 5, 1931

* Jimmy Doolittle airplane flight record

The front page has a great banner headline: "SPANS U. S. BY AIR: 11 1/4 HOURS" with subheads and flight log. (see) Nice for display. First report coverage continues on page 2 with related map. Two related photos are on the back page. (see) Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete with all 26 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.
