August 17, 1937
THE NEW YORK TIMES, August 17, 1937
* Battle of Shanghai, China
* Imperial Japanese Army
The front page has a four column headline: "SHANGHAI BATTLE RAGES DURING NIGHT; CASUALTIES HEAVY; TROOPS POURING IN; THOUSANDS OF FOREIGNERS SEEK SAFETY" with many subheads. (see)
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 40 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.
