Found a box in Grandpa’s closet. It doesn’t completely close. It’s not a very good box...

2.
“High school diplomas of Grandpa, Great Grandpa, and Great Uncle. Neat, but only to my family”
3.
4.
“But what’s this? Those drawers come out?!”
5.
“Jack-Frickin’-Pot!”
6.
“The legitimately oldest paper in the box – 1891”
7.
“Death of Roosevelt – 1919”
8.
“Eisenhower elected – 1952”
9.
“Highlights in no particular order. The grandparents probably saved the later ones, but some are probably from Grandpa’s parent’s collection”
10.
“End of WWI – 1918”
11.
12.
“A princess becomes a queen – 1953
13.
“End of WWII. Bonus – this newspaper doesn’t exist any more”
14.
“American bicentennial 7/4/1976”
15.
“Moon landing, plus Kennedy news”
16.
Death of President McKinley – 1901. Not sure why name is spelled that way”
17.
“The death of Lincoln. Technically 1865. This is either a reprint or a reprint of a reprint. You can tell by the Extra 8:10 a.m. headline. Max age, 1880”
