December 16, 1948

THE NEW YORK TIMES, December 16, 1948.
 
* Alger Hiss Indicted for perjury
* Soviet spy - espionage case


The front page has a three column headline: "HISS INDICTED FOR PERJURY IN COMMUNIST SPY INQUIRY; NEW JURY TO MEET TODAY" with subheads. Full text of indictment and photo on page 3. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Also a two column photo of Prince Charles (1st public photo) with front page headline: "Prince Charles Christened In Gay Ceremony at Palace".
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 60 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. Nice condition.
