The newspapers were collated together for the photos. Lots of ads in each newspaper.
These are worn, but, for the most part, still readable copies.  Multiple tears and creases, some affecting the text, but the majority of the articles are legible.
Fun reading, even though World War II loomed on the horizon.
Shipping is FREE in the USA.
Thanks for looking.
