IMPORTANT: This newspaper is clearly marked “REISSUE” on the masthead. It is not being represented as an original newspaper printed on October 24, 1929. It is a later reissue reproducing the historic issue and its coverage of the 1929 stock market crash.
Condition: Complete 32 pages. The newspaper has remained inside its protective plastic covering, which has some tears/damage from age and handling. The plastic has not been removed, and the condition of the newspaper underneath appears generally well preserved based on what can be seen. Please review all photographs carefully for the most accurate representation of condition.
A fascinating piece of Great Depression and Wall Street history, especially for collectors of vintage newspapers, financial history, American history, or 1929 stock market crash memorabilia.
Please note: Due to the age and nature of this vintage/reissue newspaper, it is being sold as a collectible historical item and is described to the best of my ability from the visible condition.
