The lot was the entire issue, and I was surprised it did not sell for more.
As has been said, some of these vintage newspapers contain hidden gems and often sell under the radar.

The fact that publications like this were not made to survive makes them more desirable to me. Imagine how many issues like this were thrown out because the paper disintegrated or because the issue didn't have a major star on the cover. I believe the value of this issue is underpriced for the history it contains.
