1903 Newark, New Jersey trolley & train disaster...



Item # 679232

February 19, 1903

THE EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Feb. 19, 1903

* Newark, Essex County, New Jersey
* Trolley and train collision disaster
* Barringer High School students


The top of the front page has a three column headline: "SCHOOL CHILDREN GROUND TO PIECES" 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 along the spine, generally very nice.
