September 20, 1881
NEW YORK TIMES, Sept. 20, 1881
* President James A. Garfield assassination
* 1st report of his death
The top of the first column has heads on the death of President Garfield: "THE PRESIDENT DEAD" and "He Expires At Half-Past Ten Last Night" "The End Comes Suddenly And Without Warning" "Gen. Arthur Summoned To Take Oath" with the entire front page taken up with reports concerning Garfield's death.
The last column has: "The President's Career" "Heroic Work That Led Him To His Exalted Place" & more, with related content inside. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
All columns on all 8 pages are black-bordered. Small binding holes affect a few words in the first column, browning at the margins, generally good condition. Should be handled with care.
