The selection of Pope Benedict XVI...



Item # 718015

April 20, 2005

THE NEW YORK TIMES, April 20, 2005  The front page has the 2-line banner heading: "German Cardinal Is Chosen as Pope - Benedict XVI, 78, Was John Paul II's Strict Defender of the Faith", with multiple corresponding articles and photos. Several inside pages are dedicated to the selection of the Roman Catholic Church's 265th Pope. See images for details. Nice to have this coverage in such a prominent newspaper.
Other news of the day is found throughout, providing context for this historic event.

The complete sections A-E, in very good condition.
