1939 Pope Pius XII coronation...



Item # 669993

March 13, 1939

CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, March 13, 1939

* Eugenio Maria Giuseppe Giovanni Pacelli
* Pope Pius XII coronation


The front page has a six column heading: "500,000 See Coronation of Pope Pius XII" with subheads. (see) Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete 1st section only with all with 26 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. A few small binding holes along the spine.
