1901 Corn Hill Orphanage fire disaster...



Item # 678338

January 08, 1901

THE EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Jan. 8, 1901

* Corn Hill Orphanage fire disaster
* Rochester, New York children deaths


The top of the front page has a two column headline: "ORPHAN ASYLUM DESTROYED BY FIRE" 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, a few small binding holes along the spine, generally very nice.
