    Description

    ITEM:
    A fascinating archive of vintage newspapers, magazines, clippings, and more focusing on the 1969 moon landing and the Kennedys, including the JFK and RFK assassinations.
    The moon landing newspaper is not just a front page – it is the entire edition of the Fall River (MA) Herald News from July 21, 1969, so there are related stories, story about Ted Kennedy’s accident on Martha’s Vineyard, fun ads, and lots more.
    The magazines are all complete; issues of Life, Look, Saturday Evening Post, and Time.
    There are a few miscellaneous items as well – 9 newspaper clippings, some John F. Kennedy Topps trading cards, calendar pages, and a JFK memorial poem with photo on the front (insert from an LP, I think).
    Last 2 photos are some interior pages of the moon landing newspaper.  Other magazine and newspaper articles on Martin Luther King, Jr., racial issues, Viet Nam, more.
    CONDITION:
    THEY ALL ARE A BIT MUSTY SMELLING, but no active mold or mildew.
    Newspapers, clippings, and calendar pages have been folded.
    Entire collection was stored for many years and is NOT in great condition.
    Purchase for the historical interest, but not if you are looking for pristine collectibles.
    These are all original items from the 1960s, not reproductions.
    See photos for details.
