[NEWSPAPERS]. [GREAT DEPRESSION]. The Wall Street Journal: Pacific  Coast Edition. San Francisco, Los Angeles: Oct. 25, 1929. Vol. 1 No. 5. 8pp. 22.5 X 18". "BLACK THURSDAY" STOCK MARKET CRASH. One day earlier, the stock market had lost 11% of its value at the opening bell with three million shares of stock sold in the first three minutes. Front page articles attempt to minimize concern with headlines such as "Selling Records Smashed but Saner Counsel Quiets Wild Disorder" and "BROKERS VISION FIRMER MARKET." "Hornblower & Weeks believe today will see a reversal of trend. Consensus was the break had brought prices of standard securities to sound levels." 

Three vertical and one horizontal crease with light toning and small tears. Two holes at center P.1. Occasional soiling. Very good.
