March 14, 1948

THE NEW YORK TIMES, New York,  March 14, 1948  This 100+ page newspaper has one column headlines on page 61:

* AIRLINER WITH 30 CRASHES IN ALASKA
* Chartered Shanghai - New York Craft Is Found on Glacier With No Signs of Life


This tells of Northwest Airlines Flight 4422 crash into Mount Sanford, Alaska. Interesting as the headline suggests that the wreckage was found but history shows that this airplane was not found until 1999, about 50 years later due to being Buried under ice and snow.

Other news of the day throughout. Rag edition in great condition.
