THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 9, 1931

* Francis 'Two Gun' Crowley indicted
* American murderer and career criminal
* New York City Police Department shootout


The top of the front page has a one column heading: "CROWLEY INDICTED QUICKLY FOR MURDER; GIRL AIDS THE STATE" with subheads. (see) Lengthy report continues on page 3. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication, especially on this topic.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 38 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.
