Franz Schalk, Austrian conductor death....
Item # 630403
September 03, 1931
THE NEW YORK TIMES, September 3, 1931
* Franz Schalk death (1st report)
* Austrian conductor - Vienna State Opera director
* Salzburg Festival co-founder
Page 19 has a one column heading: "FRANZ SCHALK DEAD; NOTED CONDUCTOR" with subheads and photo. (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 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.
