THE NEW YORK TIMES, April 27, 1929

* Statesboro, Georgia & more
* Tornadoes storms disaster


The top of the front page has a one column heading: "TORNADO DEATH TOLL REACHES 87 IN SOUTH; 500 KNOWN INJURED" with subheads that include: "Storm Descends at Night on Statesboro, Ga., Killing 34 There and Hurting 70" and more. (see) First report coverage on the tornado outbreak in Georgia and South Carolina in which the city of Statesboro was hardest hit. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete with 40 pages, light toning a the margins, a little irregular along the spine, generally nice.
