Anton van Rooy death... Dutch bass-baritone...



Item # 632597

November 29, 1932

THE NEW YORK TIMES, November 29, 1932

* Anton van Rooy death
* Dutch bass-baritone singer


Page 19 has a one column heading: "ANTON VAN ROOY, SINGER, DEAD AT 62" with subheads. (see) First report coverage on the death of Anton van Rooy, Dutch bass-baritone opera singer. 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 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.
