The main headline, in white letters on a green background, announces a feature on the \"Sainte Baume massacre,\" with a black and white photograph illustrating a wooded Provençal landscape. The name of the newspaper, \"semaine PROVENCE,\" is printed at the top of the page in a typography characteristic of the 1960s, with a light green band highlighting the regional edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe header specifies the publication date: \"Week of May 2 to 9, 1969,\" placing this issue in the period press, at the end of the 60s. It is issue 435 of the \"25th Year (new Series)\" and the indicated selling price is 1 franc. These elements are printed at the bottom of the cover, accompanied by a sober layout typical of regional press of that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe paper shows a slightly yellowed tint, typical of offset printing on old newspaper. The newspaper is photographed open, showing the entire cover, without the inner content being visible. The structure of the document suggests a broadsheet or large format, with wide margins and an airy layout, in accordance with the standards of weekly regional press of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe front page is dominated by a strong visual: a twisted tree against a rocky massif, probably an illustration photograph related to the main feature. The whole evokes the retro aesthetic of French publications from the late 1960s, both in the choice of colors and in the graphic design of the title and the general presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis issue, as is, bears witness to the heritage of the Provençal press, ideal for any research on local history or for display in a library dedicated to Provence or the history of the written press.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
