THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 27, 1947
* President Harry S. Truman mother's death
* Martha Ellen Young Truman
The front page has a two column headline: "MOTHER DIES AS PRESIDENT FLIES TO HER" with subheads and photo. (see) More inside.
Complete 1st section only with all 48 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.
