    Special and rare "rag edition":-
    "The rag edition was produced on a very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy many years into the future. Given the subscription cost it is not surprising that libraries rather than individuals were the primarily subscribers".
    "
    The Times discontinued the rag edition in 1953".
