The National Observer 10/21/68 Apollo 7, and similar items

The interest of the content notwithstanding, the original recipient of this vintage periodical named in the address was an honored naval aviator who led several squadrons including VF-14 on the USS Roosevelt. As such it is a great keepsake. The National Observer was published by Dow Jones from 1962 to 1977 and is a moderately conservative paper. Their criticism is never TOO strong but it is still always at the opposition. Overall though more of a calming conservatism than a rabble-rousing one; students who demonstrate at their University are alright as long as they understand it is only a temporary phase they are going through. Capisce? For the most part any given issue will touch some on the issues most current at the time. 10/21/68 Apollo 7, James Earl Ray, Jackie O - October 21, 1968. Exciting news on Apollo 7 mission, speculations about James Earl Ray and a fairly snidely shot at Jackie Kennedy Onassis in which the sub-headers suggest fraud, Vatican disapproval and ask "Why Marry A Yacht?" It has been folded since it was made and it will be mailed that way. May have minor tears or scuffs on edges or folds. Paper not badly aged, it is old newsprint though.
