Extra! Extra! Read all about our Throwback Thursday Photograph. This unidentified young woman gives new meaning to “being in the news.” She is wearing a dress made from Omaha’s Evening World-Herald newspaper. The image is from the Nathaniel Dewell Collection of original negatives and was digitized by the History Nebraska Digital Imaging Lab. Through the high-resolution digital image, our staff was able to zoom in on the newspaper headlines and discovered most of the newspapers date from June 1928.
