* Marshalls-Gilberts raids - Pacific Islands
* USS Yorktown - Task Force 17
* Post Attack on Pearl Harbor
* Prelude to the Battle of Midway
The front page has a nice banner headline: "SIX JAP BASES RAIDED BY U. S." with subheads. (see) Nice for display. First report coverage on the Marshall-Gilberts raids by Task Force 17 onboard the USS Yorktown. This was a prelude to the eventual Battle of Midway.
Complete with all 32 pages, small library stamp with masthead, small binding holes along the spine, generally very nice.
