THE NEW YORK TIMES, Jan. 6, 1943
* Dr. George Washington Carver's death
* Black-American scientist & educator
* Born into slavery
The top of page 25 has a one column heading: "DR. CARVER IS DEAD; NEGRO SCIENTIST", with subhead: "Son of Slave Parents Who Made Experiments as Member of Tuskegee Family - Clay, Seet Potato, Peanuts Lent Themselves to His Agricultural Feats". A small photo of Dr. Carver is included. This is a first report coverage on the death of George Washington Carver which takes 1 1/2 columns.
Complete with all 42 pages, light toning at the margins, a slightly rough left spine, a small piece missing from the top-right corner of the front page, but overall nice.
