* Liberation of Warsaw Poland by the Russians

The front page has six column headline: "Germans Face Disaster In Poland As Great Soviet Drive Rolls Ahead" with subheads.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 14 pages, a little margin wear, generally good.

wikipedia notes: On January 17, 1945 - after the beginning of the Vistula–Oder Offensive of the Red Army - Soviet troops entered the ruins of the city of Warsaw, and liberated Warsaw's suburbs from German occupation. The city was swiftly taken by the Soviet Army, which rapidly advanced towards Łódź, as German forces regrouped at a more westward position.
