1902 Park Avenue hotel fire disaster...



Item # 678701

February 22, 1902

THE EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Feb. 22, 1902

* Park Avenue Hotel fire
* 71st Regiment Armory


The top of the front page has a three column headline: "FIFTEEN LIVES LOST IN FLAMES" with subhead. (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 6 pages, small library stamps within the masthead, a few small binding holes and minor wear along the spine, generally very nice.
