Dramatic headline announcing the death of FDR...
THE DAILY OLYMPIAN, Olympia, Washington, April 12, 1945
- Franklin D. Roosevelt FDR death
- Great issue for display
The two-line, very bold banner headline announces: "PRES. ROOSEVELT DIES SUDDENLY ! " with the initial dispatch announcing his death set in 3 column format rather than the more typical 7 column format. The front page also features a large photo of: "Franklin Delano Roosevelt".
Presumed a complete issue with all 12 pages, light soiling to the front page, a very small hole to the front page does not cause text loss, otherwise good.
