HERALD EXPRESS, WAR EXTRA, Los Angeles, November 14, 1942

* Eddie Rickenbacker found alive
* American World War I airplane fighter ace
* Adrift at sea for 24 days


The front page has great banner headline: "CAPT. RICKENBACKER, 5 OTHERS RESCUED" with subhead. More on pages 3 & 4 with photos. First report coverage on the rescue of Captain Eddie Rickenbacker after he was adrift at sea for 24 days. Nice to have in a West Coast publication.

Incomplete issue containing the 1st 2 loose leafs (pages 1-4) only but all Rickenbacker reporting is present. Irregular along the left margin, nice for display as such.
