As we search old newspapers for specific historic content, we often find unrelated items which catch our interest. In this particular case, as we were scanning an August 4, 1913 issue of the  Commercial Appeal (Memphis, Tennessee) looking for coverage of the Leo Frank trial/investigation (which we found), we also discovered an article out of the University of Pennsylvania which announced the finding of hieroglyphics in Nippur which they believe confirmed many of the details of the Biblical account of a Great Flood (see below).

    Dear Sir,
    I have old newspapers of The first Color Moon Photos that I got from my dad when he was living in Chattanooga,Tenn before he passed away. On July 20, 1969 when the Astronaut Aldrin put the flag and his footprints of mankind on the Tranquillity Base. Also the two other astronauts Armstrong and Collins on Apollo ll-by Eagle and Columbia.

    I also have Newspaper of the picture Robert F. Kennedy showing with him lying with two bullets in the back of his head when he was running for presidential primary.
