February 23, 1934

THE NEW YORK TIMES, February 23, 1934

* Augusto César Sandino assassination
* Nicaraguan revolutionary bandit
* Latin America rebellion leader


The  top of the front page has a one column heading: "SANDINO IS KILLED BY MANAGUA GUARD; 3 AIDES ALSO SLAIN" with subheads. (see) Lengthy article continues inside with related photo. First report coverage on the assassination of Augusto César Sandino. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 36 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.
