THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 26, 1929
* Pope Pius XI leaves (1st report)
* Vatican City, Rome, Italy
The front page has a two column heading: "POPE LEAVES THE VATICAN FOR FIRST TIME IN 59 YEARS; 300,000 VIEW PROCESSION" with subheads. (see) Lengthy text continues on page 2 with two related photos. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Nice condition.
