August 02, 1934
THE NEW YORK TIMES, August 2, 1934
* Germany President Paul Von Hindenburg death
* Adolph Hitler becomes dictator
* Nazis begin climb to full power of Germany
The front page has a three column headline: "VON HINDENBURG DIES AT 86 AFTER A DAY UNCONSCIOUS; HITLER TAKES PRESIDENCY" with subheads and photo of Hindenburg. (see) Much more on page 4 & 5 with loads of text. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 38 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. Minor spine wear, nice condition.
