Item # 707433

September 14, 1901

THE COMMERCIAL APPEAL, Memphis, Tennessee, Sept. 14, 1901  This is one of the more dramatic issues we have seen on the death of President William McKinley with the banner headline: "PRESIDENT M'KINLEY DEAD" and a huge, full-figure print of him in black, captioned: "Wm. McKinley, Born Jan. 9, 1843 - Died Sept. 14, 1901".
Various related subheads including: "Bullet of the Assassin Proved But Too True" "The End Came at 2:15 O'Clock" "Last Words To His Wife" "It Is God's Way--Let His Will, Not Ours, Be Done" and more.
Complete in 10 pages, partially loose at the spine, nice condition. A bit fragile & should be handled carefully.

Item from last month's catalog - #364 - released for March, 2026.
