* Miami, Florida hurricane disaster
The front page has a nice banner headline: "1,000 DEAD IN FLORIDA STORM, 3,000 HURT; MIAMI WORST HIT; 60-MILE SWATH OF DESTRUCTION LEAVES 38,000 HOMELESS; SCORES OF TOWNS ARE RAZED OR FLOODED; SHIPPING WRECKED" with subheads, related map and partial list of the dead. Nice for display. Much more on the following pages with some related photos. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sport and advertisements of the day. Complete in 48 pages, light toning, a little margin wear, generally good.
