THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 3, 1963  

* Queen Elizabeth's first 10 years
* Pope John XXIII on the cusp of death


Page 3 has the 4-column heading: "Britain Marks Decade of Elizabeth's Reign", which includes details of her first ten years as queen and is accompanied by two photos. Unrelated is an article on the same page: "Prince Philip Bruised In Fall From Polo Pony". 
The front page has: "Pope Weakening In Final Stages Of His Struggle", which includes a photo of a crowd in St. Peter's Square "awaiting news of the Pope's condition". He would die later this same day.
Complete with 60 pages, light toning along the margins, remnants of having come from a library's bound volume, generally very nice.
