1912 USS New York launching...



Item # 679859

October 30, 1912

EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Oct. 30, 1912

* USS New York (BB-34) launching
* United States Navy battleship


The top of the front page has a three column photo with heading: "HUGE SUPER-DREADNAUGHT NEW YORK IS LAUNCHED" 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 18 pages, 2 small library stamps within the masthead, irregular along the spine, generally very nice.
