THE NEW YORK TIMES, January 12, 1932
* Sarah Bogle death - American librarian pioneer
* Phar Lap to race in the Agua Caliente Handicap
* Thoroughbred horse racing record to be broken
Page 23 has a one column heading: "MISS SARAH BOGLE, LIBRARIAN, IS DEAD" with subheads. (see) First report coverage on the death of Sarah Bogle, American librarian pioneer most noted for her influence in establishing education for librarianship. I suspect this is one of the few publications to report this particular event as other titles in our inventory do not.
Page 32 has one column headings: "PHAR LAP ASSIGNED TOP WEIGHT OF 129" "Crack Australian Racer Will Carry Heaviest Burden in Agua Caliente Handicap" "Is Due On Coast Friday" and more with list of entries.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. complete in 48 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.
