September 26, 1893
THE DAILY JOURNAL, Philipsburg, Pennsylvania, Sept. 26, 1893 The front page has two-thirds of a column headed: "TRAIN ROBBERS SHOT" "They Held Up a rain Full of Armed Detectives" "Two Killed Three Captured" "The Train Was A Dummy Sent Out in Expectation of an Attempt at Robbery--All of the Rob beers Residents of St. Joseph, Mo."
The article is quite detailed and shown in the photos. A nice report of a classic, Old West train robbery.
Four pages, minor margin chipping and various small tears at margins, a few small archival mends, rather fragile & should be handled carefully.
