Abstract

This collection contains newspapers and printed material spanning through both World Wars, and through the 1970's. Most materials are from the Maryland general area, but also included are newspapers from Knoxville, New York and Philadelphia to show different perspectives of news reporting for the same dates. One topic of importance not pertaining to either World War is that of space travel, and the frenzy it brought to the press as seen through newspapers and printed materials in this collection. Some newspaper are full editions, however, most are partials preserving the front page and first section, and sometimes including comics and sport sections.

Administrative History

Most of the material in this collection was collected during World War I by John Fehrer, 1875-1963, of Baltimore.
