June 11, 1940
THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 11, 1940
* Italy enters World War II
* Benito Mussolini speech
* Franklin D. Roosevelt
This 52 page newspaper has a great two line banner headline on the front page: "ITALY AT WAR, READY TO ATTACK; STAB IN BACK, SAYS ROOSEVELT" with subheads that include: "DUCE GIVES SIGNAL" Announces War on the 'Plutocratic' Nations of the West" and more with related map. (see)
More inside including complete text of Mussolini and Roosevelt's speeches. Too much to photograph here.
Other news of the day throughout. Light browning, otherwise in nice condition.
