THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 7, 1937
* Hindenburg airship disaster
* Lakehurst NJ New Jersey
When it comes to historic events of national significance, the "New York Times" remains one of the most desired titles. This issue has great coverage of the Hindenburg disaster, with the two line banner headline: "HINDENBURG BURNS IN LAKEHURST CRASH; 21 KNOWN DEAD, 12 MISSING; 64 ESCAPE" with various related subheads. Plus the front page features a quite large and dramatic photo captioned: "The Hindenburg In Flames On The Field At Lakehurst..." (see).
The complete 52 page issue and this is the "rag edition" printed on very high-quality newsprint specifically for institutional use as they required paper that would last hundreds of years. Disbound, in great condition.
