Very early newspaper report on the San Francisco earthquake...

Item # 672500 ·
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE--EXTRA, EXTRA, EXTRA, Oct. 18, 1989 

* San Francisco earthquake (1ST REPORT)
* Best title to be had ?


This was one of the earliest editions on the street after the earthquake. The banner headline proclaims: "HUNDREDS DEAD IN HUGE QUAKE" with several subheads, plus a large photo of a collapsed apartment building.
The first 8 of the 16 pages are exclusively reports concerning the earthquake with a wealth of photos, including two from the World Series game in progress at the time.
Sixteen pages, nice condition. Great to have from the city where the earthquake happened.
