Richard Byrd's Trans-Atlantic Flight....



Item # 715220

July 01, 1927

THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 1, 1927.

* Richard Byrd's Transatlantic flight in fog

The front page has has a nice three line, full banner headline: "BYRD FLIES FOR HOURS IN FOG OVER FRANCE SEEKING FOR PARIS AND A PLACE TO LAND; LAST MESSAGE FROM HIM AN SOS NEAR DAWN", with related subheads and a nice photo of Richard Evelyn Byrd.  Additionally, there is a related map on page 2.
Incomplete issue containing the outer leaves only (pages 1-2 & 21-2), a little margin wear, still nice for display as such.
