Abe Fortas nominated for Chief Justice... Iwo Jima returned to Japan...

Item # 724843 ·
HERALD EXAMINER, Los Angeles, June 26, 1968  The front page has a bold banner headline: "FORTAS CHIEF JUSTICE; And a Texan Named to Court Vacancy" with subhead and small photo. Nice coverage on Lyndon Johnson nominating Abe Fortas for Chief Justice of the United States.
Also on the front page are two side-by-side photos of the famous raising of the flag on Iwo Jima, and the Japanese raising their flag on Iwo Jima with the caption: "Japan's Rising Sun Blows In Iwo Jima Breeze" upon the return of the island to Japan.
This is the complete first section with 20 pages, margin wear, and the front & back leaves are loose at the spine.
