> In any case; where can I view 1995 copies of NYT for free? :)

Every public library in the United States, if I'm not mistaken, and a large number of major libraries worldwide.

Hmm. I was hoping there was a way I could do so online.

Mumbles something about equal opportunity open access and the bourgeois

New York Public Library, with a library card: https://www.nypl.org/blog/2013/08/22/how-to-search-nytimes

Los Angeles Public Library, with a library card: https://www.lapl.org/new-york-times-digital (and you can apply for an e-card online for free: http://www.lapl.org/about-lapl/contact-us/e-card/e-card-regi...)

Kansas City Public Library, with a library card: https://www.kclibrary.org/blog/kc-unbound/how-read-back-issu...

Etc.

Summary: get a public library card, support the oh-so-terribly bourgeois public library system ;)

This is fair, but I don't know how much the National Library of Australia has, or whether access is free. Sorry I forgot to mention my location in my previous comment.
