"Nazi" newspaper from an English island...



Item # 564642

January 31, 1944

EVENING PRESS, Island of Guernsey (in the English Channel), Jan. 31, 1944 

* Rare Nazi issue from a captured island

A very curious issue, as Guernsey, an English-speaking island, was occupied by the Germans during WWII so all the news was pro-Nazi.

Among the front page heads are: " 'Britain's Role in Europe is Finished for Ever' -- Herr Hitler"  "Fuehrer's Stirring Speech to German People" is quite lengthy; "Field Greys are Smashing The Reds--Battle Aircraft Rend Transport Fleet off Italy" "Heavy Raid on London--Strong Bolshevik Thrusts Repelled".

Complete as a single sheet newspaper, small folio size, great condition.
