CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, March 15, 1945
* Battle of Iwo Jima - Volcano Islands
* United States Marines vs. Japanese
* American flag raised as moral victory
The front page has a great banner headline: "YANKS KILL 20,000 ON IWO" with subhead: "U.S. Formally Raises Flag Over Island" and small photo. Nice for display. Not to be confused with the famous flag planting on Mount Suribachi. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Complete with all 34 pages, light toning at the margins, small library stamp within the masthead, small binding holes along the spine, generally very nice.
