December 06, 1955
THE SPRINGFIELD UNION, Massachusetts, December 6, 1955  This complete, 40 page newspaper has one column headlines on page 15 reading: "SEGREGATION TEST POSSIBLE IN ALABAMA" and "Arrest of Negro Refusing To Use Back Section of Bus May Be Basis".
This is a very historic report, telling of the now-famous Rosa Parks incident in Montgomery Alabama. It is rare to have mention of the words "back of the bus" within the headline. Indeed, not all newspapers reported this incident.
Light browning with minor margin wear, otherwise in nice condition.
