Coelophysis dinosaur find in New Mexico....



Item # 624275

July 14, 1947

THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 14, 1947

* Coelophysis dinosaurs skeletons discoveries
* Ghost Ranch, New Mexico


The front page has two column headings: "Museum Finds Dinosaurs Of 200 Million Years Ago" "Skeletons of Ancestor of Forty-Ton Monster Are Only Three or Four Feet in Length--Discovered in New Mexico" Coverage on the famed Coelophysis dinosaur skeleton find at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico. Nice to have in this famous NYC title and on the front page.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 36 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Very nice condition.
