January 19, 1937
NEW YORK WORLD-TELEGRAM, January 19, 1937 

* Aviator Howard Hughes 
* Transcontinental airplane speed flight record 
* Los Angeles to New York City 

The front page has a three column headline: "Hughes Spans U. S. in 7 1/2 Hours Fighting Death at 20,000 Feet" with subhead and two related photos.
Complete with all 32 pages, light toning at the margins, small library stamp within the masthead, small binding holes along the spine, generally very nice.
