Item # 678316

January 24, 1901

THE EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Jan. 24, 1901

* Edward VII begins reign
* King of the United Kingdom
* Ireland - Emperor of India

The top of the front page has two column headline: "IN POMP OF SPLENDOR KING IS PROCLAIMED" with subheads. (see) Surprisingly this issue is in good condition being from the "wood pulp" era. Very hard to find issues that are not totally fragile from this era in paper.
Complete with 8 pages, small library stamps within the masthead, generally nice.
