Item # 579425
August 08, 1944
TAUNTON DAILY GAZETTE, August 8, 1944
* Heinrich Himmler assassination
* False report in World War II
This 10 page newspaper has a banner headline above the masthead: "Report Himmler Assassinated--Goering Wounded" which tells of the rumor the Heinrich Himmler has been killed by anti-Nazi revolutionists. Of course this report is false as he committed suicide at the end of the war in May of 1945. A nice curiosity item here.
Other news of the day including various advertising. This issue has light browning, minor margin wear, but is otherwise in good condition.
