TAUNTON DAILY GAZETTE, Massachusetts, December 1, 1942
* Cocoanut Grove nightclub fire
* Worst nightclub disaster in U.S. history
* 492 would be the total dead
The ftpg. has a 4 column headline on the horrendous Cocoanut Grove Club fire in nearby Boston: "Witness Testifies Night Club Was Overcrowded" with a large photo. More coverage on page 3 with two additional photos. Lots of text, too much to photograph. Nice to have this report in a newspaper from close to the tragedy.
Complete in 10 pages, minor margin wear, generally nice.
