Taifa Leo (Nairobi) (22 July 1969)

Original pages 1-8 of this Swahili-language daily from Nairobi.  Although the main headline translates as “He is charged with the murder of (Tom) Mboya,” who was one of Kenya’s most famous politicians then and now, the paper itself was saved because of reporting on the Apollo 11 Moon landing.  Intact but highly aged.  Grade: 3
