Gitanillo, gypsy bullfighter death...



Item # 630399

August 15, 1931

THE NEW YORK TIMES, August 15, 1931

* Gitanillo de Triana death (1st report)
* Gypsy bullfighting matador- bullfighter


Page 13 has a one column heading: "Gitanillo Is Dead; Gypsy Bull-Fighter" with subhead. (see) I suspect this is one of the few publications to report this particular event as other titles in our inventory do not.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 30 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.
