Prohibition is void in 1930 ?...



Item # 702611

November 19, 1930

CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, Nov. 19, 1930

* Prohibition is a failure ?
* Referendum by U.S. lawyers
* re. Eighteenth Amendment
* Nice headline for display
* Al 'Scarface' Capone era


The front page has a nice banner headline: "U.S. LAWYERS VOTE WET 2 TO 1" with subheads. (see images) Nice for display. When it comes to gangsters, organized crime, and the nefarious activities born out of the Prohibition and Great Depression eras, no city is more in the forefront of our minds than Chicago - and what better newspaper can be found than the Chicago Tribune, self-proclaimed to be "The World's Greatest Newspaper" - attributed in part to its dramatic, banner headlines! Whether hanging on your wall or part of an ongoing collection, these events are sure to capture the flavor of this infamous period in American history.
Complete with 36 pages, rag edition in very nice condition. A few small binding holes along the spine.
