Item # 632152
July 06, 1932
THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 6, 1932
* Erland Nordenskiold death
* Swedish archeologist & anthropolgist
* Prehistory of South America
Page 19 has a one column heading: "DR. NORDENSKIOLD, EXPLORER, IS DEAD" with subheads and photo. (see) First report coverage on the death of Erland Nordenskiold, Swedish archeologist and anthropologist. 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 advertisement of the day. Complete in 42 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.
