THE NEW YORK TIMES, February 10, 1933

* Millard Hotel fire - Omaha, Nebraska
* Firemen - firefighters disaster (1st report)


The top of page 23 has one column headings: "7 FIREMEN KILLED IN OMAHA BLAZE" "22 Are Injured in Fighting Flames Which Destroy the Historic Millard Hotel" and more. (see) First report coverage on the Millard Hotel fire in Omaha, Nebraska in which 8 firemen perished. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 36 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. Very nice condition.
