CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, Feb. 28 , 1939

* NLRB v. Fansteel Metallurgical Corp.
* United States Supreme Court decision
* re. Sit down strikes - fired employees


The front page has a great banner headline: "SIT DOWN STRIKES ILLEGAL!" with subheads. Nice for display. Lengthy text continues inside with a few related photos. First report coverage on the NLRB v. Fansteel Metallurgic Corp. landmark United States Supreme Court decision.
Complete with 28 pages, this is the "rag edition" printed on very high quality newsprint meant for institutional holdings. In great condition as such, a few small binding holes at the spine.
