July 06, 1944

HERALD EXPRESS--EXTRA, Los Angeles, July 6, 1944 

* Hartford circus fire
* The day the clowns cried
* Early, same day report


The bold headline above the masthead announces one of the biggest disasters in American history: "100 KILLED IN RINGLING CIRCUS FIRE" with a subhead: "Big Top Falls Traps Many" Nice for display.
First section only with pages 1-12, some damage along right margin near central fold but doesn't affect circus report, light toning along the central fold, a few tiny margin tears, great for display.
