This coffee-table book features over 100 pages of authentic Los Angles Times newspaper reports about The History of the 1950's. It comes with a choice of covers and the option to have the recipient’s name printed on the cover for free.

About this book

Each page of this book is filled with front covers from the Los Angeles Times covering the major events of the 1950s. 

The Korean war started at the beginning of this decade, and therefore features heavily in the coverage, leading to the eventual truce in July 1953. In this 1950s Decade Book, there are reports of the Cold War and the death of Stalin in March 1953, as well as the rising Cuban tensions and the Suez crisis.

This book also covers the coronation of the UK’s longest-reigning monarch, Queen Elizabeth II. There are also articles about the creation of the H Bomb, and the Russians launching a satellite to orbit the Earth, with a second with a dog on board.

Archivist insight: We reproduce these newspaper articles from scan archives. In some cases, there’ll be blemishes and the reproduction quality might not be as clear or precise as it was in the original paper.
