Description
|
|
|
|
Throughout the 20th century, the New York Times served as the leading newspaper of record for major events ranging from the 1906 San Francisco earthquake to the cracking of the human genetic code. Here you can test your knowledge of the era through 48 headlines printed in the Times. Each card in this set presents an incomplete headline on the front—for example, "Monday, December 4, 1967: ___?___ Keeps Man Alive in South Africa"—with the missing word or date on the reverse ("Heart Transplant"), as well as the first paragraph from the article. Not much bigger than a pack of playing cards, the deck contains four dozen attractively decorated cards with individual entries. Use them as flash cards, or for impromptu trivia and quiz games, or simply read them as an unbound book.
