Original four-page Late City Edition of the Friday, May 7, 1937, New York Herald Tribune, with the headline announcing “Hindenburg Explodes at Lakehurst, 34 Die; Dirigible, Landing, Falls 500 Feet in Flames,” with a smaller headline reading “Static Electricity Theory Is Advanced as a Cause,” with a large photo of the airship crashing to the ground. In good and fragile condition, with tape repairs to fragile intersecting folds, separations and chipping to folds, pencil notations along top edge, and small tears and chips to the fragile edges. Accompanied by three small clipped articles regarding the Hindenburg, and a handwritten note that reads, “An on-the-air radio reporter broke into tears and sobbed ‘you’ll have to excuse me for a few moments, folks. This is the first tragedy like this I’ve ever seen.’”
