1967: The headlines were dominated by reports of mass civilian casualties in Vietnam, and LBJ's attempts to draw support for U.S. aerial bombing targets.
1917: As WW1 rages pacifists descend on Chicago to voice their opposition to the war. The Winnipeg Evening Tribune leads their headlines with the loss of thousands of Russian lives in a fire. This is in reference to the Kazan gunpowder plant fire. In actual point of fact it appears that 21 people died in the fire...not thousands.
1867: At first glance this front page does not appear all that interesting, but look closer at the right side of the page about half way down, and you will see an advertisement for the Pacific Anatomical Museum. This "educational" facility featured nude wax models (mostly woman) where the refined gentlemen could come to study the human form...Other curiosities in the museum included mummies, and the head of gold rush era bandit Joaquin Murrieta.
