* Joseph McCarthy death
* U.S. Senator (Wisconsin)
The front page has a nice headline: "SEN. M'CARTHY DEAD AT 47" with subheads and photo. (see) He was noted for making claims that there were large numbers of Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers inside the United States federal government and elsewhere. Ultimately, his tactics and inability to substantiate his claims led him to be censured by the United States Senate.
Complete with 40 pages, light toning at the margins, generally very nice.
