Description by OLDIES.com:

Between 1929 and 1967, Universal-International newsreels were released twice weekly, many narrated by famed announcer Ed Herlihy. It was almost impossible to attend a motion picture that was not preceded by one. Top production crews traversed the nation and the globe to bring the leading stories in politics, entertainment, sports as well as national and global affairs, back to eager audiences.

Highlights from this collection include:

Atomic Submarine 'Nautilus' Circles Globe Underwater
Grace Kelly Weds Prince Rainer of Monaco
Luxury Liner 'Andrea Doria' Sinks After Collision
Dwight D. Eisenhower Re-Elected By A Landslide
Hungarian Revolt Crushed By Soviet Tanks
First Demonstration Of Guided Missiles In Britain
California Commuter Train Wreck Kills 29, Injures 142
Italians Get An Eyeful Of American Swimsuit Fashions
House Of The Future Unveiled To Public In San Francisco
Santa Claus Uses Flying Saucer In Holiday Parade
College Basketball Wonder Wilt Chamberlain Leads Jayhawks To Victory

....and much more!!
