THE NEW YORK TIMES, April 20, 1934
* John Dillinger gang ?
* Pana, Illinois bank robbery
The top of the back page has a one column heading: "$27,629 BANK RAID LAID TO DILLINGER" with subheads. (see) First report coverage on a bank holdup at Pana, Illinois. I cannot find anything online that connects Dillinger to this robbery, so was it him ?
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 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.
