TAGBLATT, Vienna, Austria, Sept. 10, 1898 

* Empress Elisabeth of Austria assassination

A quite rare broadside "Extra" distributed "Gratis" reporting the murder of Empress Elisabeth of Austria.
The front page banner notice translates: "Our Empress - Murdered!" "Assassin An Italian Anarchist In Geneva". A bit more text as well.
Great to have this account from the city where it happened.
As a broadside, the reverse is blank. The broadside is glued to card stock as otherwise the fragile issue would be in pieces. There are numerous breaks with some flaking, and a tear in the card stock which has been mended from the reverse side.
