THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, New York, August 29, 1963
* Martin Luther King Jr.
* Famous march on Washington D.C.
* Civil Rights - black Americana
At the top of the front page under the "What's News" column is a report with a small heading: "The March on Washington by Civil Rights supporters ended peacefully." which begins: "An estimated 200,000 people--both Negro and white--took part in the march from the Washington Monument to the Lincoln Memorial..." with more.
Page 2 has more detailed account headed: "Civil Rights March on Washington Orderly; Leaders Urge Diverse Courses of Action" with a good amount of text, equating a full column. Curiously, there is no mention of Martin Luther King by name.
Complete in 18 pages, small binding holes at the blank spine margin touching a few letters in an unrelated article, otherwise in great condition.
