THE NEW YORK TIMES, Aug. 22, 1947
- Theodore G. Bilbo death
- Governor of Mississippi
- Ku Klux Klan member
- White supremacist - supremacy
- Pro segregation advocate
The front page has a one column heading: "BILBO DEAD AT 69 OF HEART AILMENT" with subhead. (see images) Lengthy coverage continues on page 10 with photo.
I suspect this to be a very rare item because there was really no reason to save it at the time.
Complete with 36 pages, rag edition in very nice condition.
