* SS Viking sealing ship explosion disaster
* Film producer Varick Frissell
The top of the front page has a two column headline: "24 MISSING FROM THE VIKING; SARGENT, INJURED, IS SAVED; RESCUE BOATS REACH ISLAND" with subheads. (see) Coverage on the SS Viking disaster near Horse Islands off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 52 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Small binding slits along the spine, nice condition.
