The volume is bound in blue-grey cloth boards featuring a black spine label with gold-stamped lettering reading CLEVELAND PRESS and AUGUST 1933. The interior contains daily issues from August 1 through August 31, 1933, representing a primary source record of major global and domestic events during the Great Depression.
