Authentic December 12, 1957 issue of JET — the pocket-size weekly that chronicled Black America from a Black perspective. The cover story, "The Mystery Man of Civil Rights," is reported by Simeon Booker, JET's pioneering Washington correspondent best known for his on-the-ground coverage of the Emmett Till case. This issue carries Booker's Mississippi civil-rights reporting from the heart of the era.
A genuine piece of mid-century Black history and journalism — the kind of primary-source material increasingly hard to find with no mailing label and fully intact.
Condition: Good to Very Good. Complete and readable. Vertical crease through the cover and pages, light edge wear, and natural newsprint toning for its age. No label, no writing.
Ships fast and carefully packaged in a rigid mailer to protect against bends. No odor — smoke-free, pet-free, climate-controlled storage.
