1899 Elihu Root... Secretary of War...
Item # 680241
August 01, 1899
THE EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Aug. 1, 1899
* Elihu Root - American lawyer & statesman
* Sworn in as Secretary of war under Roosevelt
The top of the front page has a two column headline: "ROOT SWORN IN, ALGER RETIRES" 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. Rare as such.
Complete with 8 pages, a few small library stamps within the masthead, a few small binding holes along the spine, generally very nice.
