Ford is sworn into office upon Nixon's resignation...



Item # 675753

August 10, 1974

THE WASHINGTON POST, Aug. 10, 1974  

* President Richard Nixon resigns
* Gerald Ford becomes president
* Best publication to be had


The 2-line banner headline announces: "Ford Becomes 38th President, Promises Openness and Candor" with a front page photo of Nixon headed: "Sad, Emotional Nixon Bids Farewell to Staff" and a larger photo of Gerald R. Ford being sworn into office.
Great to have this notable report in the Washington Post.
The complete first section (of 5) with pages 1-24, nice condition.
