CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, Jan. 12, 1943
- USS Aircraft Carrier Hornet sinking
- Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands
- Doolittle Raid & Battle of Midway fame
The front page has a banner headline: "NAME 11 LOST U. S. WARSHIPS" with subheads. (see images) Two nice size photos on the back page with heading.
This sinking actually happened a few months earlier but was not made public until now making this still a first report.
Complete with all 32 pages, light toning at the margins, small binding holes along the spine, generally very nice.
