July 03, 1934

THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 3, 1934
 
* Night of the Long Knives
* Adolph Hitler cleans house
* Rebellion in Pre WWII Germany


The front page has a four column headline: "HITLER FIRING SQUAD ACTIVE ALL DAY; FATE OF HUNDREDS STILL UNCERTAIN; HINDENBURG PUBLICLY HAILS 'VICTORY'" with many subheads. (see) Much more on the following pages with some related photos. 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 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. Nice condition.
