Cartoonist Eugene Zimmerman death...



Item # 672293

March 27, 1935

THE NEW YORK TIMES, March 27, 1935

* Eugene Zimmerman "Zim" death
* Swiss-American cartoonist
* Horseheads, New York
* Teal Park bandstand


The top of page 21 has a one column heading: "ZIMMERMAN DEAD; NOTED CARTOONIST" with subheads. (see) First report coverage on the death of Eugene Zimmerman. 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 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.
