Raymond Poincaré death...



Item # 638023

October 15, 1934

THE NEW YORK TIMES, October 15, 1934

* French Statesman Raymond Poincaré death
* Prime Minister & President of France


The front page has a one column heading: "POINCARE IS DEAD; WAR STATESMAN" with subheads. (see) First report coverage continues inside with photo. (see) Lengthy text. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 38 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.
