Dramatic issue on the Hindenburg disaster...

Item # 724608

May 07, 1937

DAILY NEWS, New York, May 7, 1937 The front pages tells it all, with the bold banner headline: "HINDENBURG EXPLODES" and smaller subhead: "80 Die In flaming Zep" with half of the front page taken up with the famous & iconic photo of the dirigible "Hindenburg" seconds after it burst into flames. As the front page notes: "Another Picture of Disaster On Back Page" which could serve as another front page, having its own masthead & dateline with banner head: "LAKEHURST ZEP BLAST KILLS 80" with an even larger photo of the "Holocaust at Lakehurst Naval Air Station".
Although a 76 page issue, present only are pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 37, 38, 39, 40, 73, 74, 75 & 76. But it's the front page that sets the value, with the added bonus of a displayable back page as well. In great condition.
