Overview
An original issue of The New York Times from Monday, November 25, 1963, Late City Edition. The front page carries the three-line headline reporting that President Kennedy's assassin was shot to death in a Dallas jail corridor, and that grieving crowds filed past Kennedy's coffin at the Capitol. A large Associated Press photo shows Caroline Kennedy kneeling with her mother and touching the flag-draped coffin in the Rotunda. Below the fold, Bob Jackson's photo of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald runs across the page. Other front-page stories cover world leaders arriving for the funeral, plans for the state funeral procession, millions of viewers seeing the shooting on live television, and President Johnson ordering an inquiry. The paper has a warm tan tone and suits a history collection, or the front page can be framed for a study, office or library wall.
Background
This issue was printed on the morning of President Kennedy's funeral and covers the events of Sunday, November 24, 1963. The masthead shows Vol. CXIII, No. 38,656, the ten-cent price and the 1963 copyright line. Bob Jackson's photo, credited on the page to the Dallas Times-Herald, won the 1964 Pulitzer Prize for photography. The issue has multiple sections, with inside pages.
Condition
Good vintage condition for newsprint of this age. There is toning throughout, a central fold, and edge wear with chips and small tears, mostly along the top edge and the bottom of the fold, with a creased corner at the top left. It comes in a clear plastic sleeve; the label and tape pieces are on the sleeve, not the paper. Please see all photos.

Folded, it measures about 15 x 11.5 x 0.75 inches (W x H x D). Each full page opens to about 15 x 23 inches. The paper weighs about 1 lb.
