Product description

The Trib New York, Thursday January 26 1978, Volume 1 Number 14. Printed in New York by The Trib New York Inc.  Newspaper, 48 pages. Tabloid size: 15" x 12" (380mm x 305mm).

The Trib was a very short lived New York City tabloid newspaper which published its first issue on January 9, 1978 and ceased publication after just 62 issues on April 6, 1978.  It was the first new NYC morning newspaper since 1978.  A failure to gain paid subscribers (under 50,000) and lack of advertisers, combined with a costly trademark infringement lawsuit from the International Herald Tribune all contributed to its demise.

Highlight of this issue include:

  • Metro: cover story on flooding in NYC and the suburbs
  • US/International: Anwar Sadat and Israel negotiations with Jimmy Carter, study beings on artificial sweetener saccharin to determine if it is cancerous, and more
  • Finance: Dow Jones closes at 772 (compared to 2026's 52,500+ level), and more
  • Entertainment: complete TV Listings, articles on Rosemary Clooney and Hal Halbrook, Shields and Yarnell, and more
  • Sports: Joe Namath and Sonny Werblin, New York Knicks, NBA and NHL standings, horse racing, and more
  • Travel: around the world on the Cunard ship Queen Elizabeth 2

Regular sections included: Books, Business and Finance, Communicators, Crossword...Games, Culture...The Arts, Entertainment, Lotteries, Metro...The Tri-States, Obituaries, Opinion, Overseas, Private Line, Racing Results, Scoreboard, Sports, Style, Television, TV Listings, Travel, and U.S. News.

Condition: The newspaper's pages are yellowed from age, and it has considerable wear along the edges and there is an approximately 1 inch triangle shaped piece missing on one of the bottom corner edges.  The newspaper has been stored folded for a half a century so it will ship folded (see photos below).
