THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 13, 1937
* King George VI & Queen Elizabeth
* Coronation at Westminster Abbey
The top of the front page has a five column headline: "GEORGE VI AND ELIZABETH CROWNED IN ABBEY; MILLIONS OF THEIR SUBJECTS ACCLAIM THEM; KING, ON AIR, PLEDGES SERVICE TO THE EMPIRE" with subheads and photo. (see) Much more pages 16-20 with loads of text and more photos.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 52 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.
