Google News archive search

I read today that google was adding more scanned newspaper archives to its new search.

I did a search for "Ruth Dicker" and set the range to "All dates" and got some cool results.

Although I'm not sure if the results are part of the new feature, this is from the May 27th, 1962 New York Times:
RUTH DICKER (Little Studio): Paintings that reveal a sound artist when the get-rich-quick investments in picturesque and poetic are replaced by more...
There are also interesting results from the San Mateo Times and the Oakland Tribune in the 1960's.  I wonder what else is out there.
