Today the Arizona Daily Star offers a look back at some front pages that appeared in Novembers throughout the newspaper’s history. Stories of note from past Novembers include the dedication of the Tomb of the Unknowns, the death of Harry Houdini, a blackout in the northeastern United States and the beginning of the hostage crisis in Iran.
A single newspaper page earlier in the 20th century was much wider than they are today. To be able to print the entire page, we have been forced to shrink them so that they are too small for many to read. The center of this section shows a page that is much closer to the original size. On other pages where the reproduction is smaller, we've reprinted at least part of the stories we've highlighted.
