Marilyn Monroe

 LOS ANGELES TIMES  EXTRA EDITION  !!!!!

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1962 NEWSPAPER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES DECLARING MARILYN'S DEATH FROM PILLS. IT IS THE EXTRA EDITION FROM MONDAY AUGUST 6,1962. THE CONDITION IS GOOD, BUT BECAUSE IT IS 44 YEARS OLD, THERE IS YELLOWING OF THE PAGES. THIS IS THE ENTIRE NEWSPAPER AS IT WAS SOLD ON THAT DAY. IT IS A RARE FIND BOTH PAPERS

LOS ANGELES TIMES

This is an original AUGUST 6,1962 Los Angeles Times with Marilyn's picture on the front page and thru out the newspaper. This is a complete newspaper with no tears in paper, just aging around the edges. You don't find this often so complete!!!      BOTH PAPERS   

    Marilyn Speaks: Her Own Words in Last Weeks.” The irony of this NY Daily News headline for 14 August 1962 is both haunting and heart breaking. The cover photo is purportedly the “last photo” of Marilyn ever taken. (The work of photographer George Barris.)
This extraordinary edition of the New York Daily News is in truly superior condition. This newspaper has been handled very little and has never been creased. The paper has yellowed somewhat with age, but is strong and supple.
The interior spread (which I did not photograph) features photos of a joyful Marilyn, quoted as saying, only a scant month-and-a-half before her death, that the “happiest time of my life is now.” The interior feature article (which I did not photograph), entitled “Twilight of a Star,” consists of a full-page interview with Marilyn.

The loss of Gus Grissom, Edward White and Roger Chaffee has been somewhat lost in history since the Challenger disaster but I can still remember the stories told to me from a friend of the family who worked on the environmental support systems for the Apollo program. His description of that day, the sounds and the sight never left him. Upon reading the articles the incident is brought vividly to life in these two papers.

Each paper has the half fold crease with the expected age discoloration. The Daytona paper shows some small tears along the edges and a 1" torn hole near outer edge at the fold crease.  Apollo 1967

NEIL STEPS ON THE MOON" WAPAKONETA HEADLINE Wapakoneta, Ohio, July 21, 1969.
 
* Best issue to have on this historic event
* Neil Armstrong's hometown newspaper


A great issue on this significant event as this newspaper is from Neil Armstrong's hometown. Typically issues of this date carried a headline "Man Walks On Moon" but this hometown newspaper personalized the report honoring their local hero with "Neil Steps On The Moon". This is likely the only newspaper in the country with such a headline, and not being able to have a newspaper from where the event happened, this would be the next best thing! The front page photo shows Neil's parents. The issue is complete in 10 pages and is in excellent condition. A very scarce issue given the limited press run from such a small town.

The Islander Newspaper Midway Island President Nixon

              June 8, 1969 On that day President Richard Nixon and President Thieu from South Vietnam met on Midway Island to discuss the pullout of troops from Vietnam.  At 10 a.m. Air Force One touched down and shortly afterwards President Nguyen Van Theiu's plane landed from Vietnam. President Nixon and South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu meet at Midway Island in the Pacific. At the meeting, Nixon announced that 25,000 U.S. troops would be withdrawn by the end of August. Nixon and Thieu emphasized that South Vietnamese forces would replace U.S. forces. Along with this announcement of the first U.S. troop withdrawal, Nixon discussed what would become known as "Vietnamization." Under this new policy, Nixon intended to initiate steps to increase the combat capability of the Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces so that the South Vietnamese would eventually be able to assume full responsibility for the war.
What follows in "The Islander" is a four page description of the events and activities of that day which would lead the the eventual ending of the Vietnam war.  Paper is an original of what was supplied to each of us that day.  President Nixon's signature is on the bottom of the front page.  He would have signed the original paper and what we received were all copies of that document.

The Egyptian Gazette first appeared on 26 January 1880 smack in the middle of an Egyptian financial crisis. Its five founders: Messrs. Edmund Carver, Charles Frederick Moberly Bell, John Ross, Andrew Victor Philip and Charles Royle were respectively a cotton trader, the London Times manager, a shipping magnate, an editor and a barrister. Out of this financial crisis came a 72-year British military occupation with three decades of strident economic and agricultural reforms. The era of the Anglo-Egyptian had arrived-that cadre of self-important civil servants who oiled the bureaucratic wheels that ran the growing British-run Egyptian administration. Consequently, the Egyptian Gazette became the principle vehicle for discussion of business and economic matters, and the dissemination of British policy in Egypt. Includes advertisements for Volkswagen Bug and commercial vehicles, Citibank, and Lufthansa Airlines. Headlines and conflicts covered in 1979 are again reflected in today's newspaper headlines. Overall in VERY GOOD condition with normal wear to edges, but crisp, clean, and tight
