An interesting typo on the date. It should be the 19 June 1904 but appears as the 91 June 1904.

Think it is funny that 110 years later it is still floating around for all to see. Whoever was responsible probably took a great deal of ribbing and flak at the time and is probably turning in his grave as I type this. Whoops!

Wow, well spotted mate!  :)

I was nearly going to say that there was another typo on the month's name, written "Juny" (since June in spanish is written "Junio") but a quick search on the internet showed me that this is the archaic form of the month's name in spanish. I am glad I searched before making the fool of myself!  ;D

Anyway, I agree it's wonderful that we can look into these details and comment nowadays, and I wonder if anyone actually noticed that when it was first published.
