Ronald Reagan is inaugurated, hostages are released... In a Washington newspaper...



Item # 701836

January 21, 1981

THE WASHINGTON POST, January 21, 1981 

* Ronald Reagan inauguration
* Iran hostage crisis ends
* Best publication to have ?


Two historic banner headlines on the front page read: "Freed Americans Land in W. Germany" "Reagan Sworn In as the 40th President" with related subheads.
The front page photo shows Ronald Reagan in his motorcade, and another shows former hostages arriving in Algiers.
Great to have this historic event in this famous title from the nation's capital. 
Present are pages 1-20 of the front section, along with pages 29-36 which has the inauguration reports & photos. Folded twice, good condition.
