1914 Battle of Halen... England declares war...
Item # 680843
August 13, 1914
THE EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Aug. 13, 1914
* Battle of Helen - the Silver Helmets - Belgium
* United Kingdom declares war on Austria-Hungary
The front page has a banner headline in red lettering: "GERMANS MEET CRUSHING DEFEAT AT BELGIANS' HANDS" and: "Hostilities Against-Hungary Are Commenced By France and England" with subheads. (see) Nice for display. The war would officially begin the very next day. Surprisingly this issue is in good condition being from the "wood pulp" era. Very hard to find issues that are not totally fragile from this era in paper. Rare as such.
Complete with 12 pages, small library stamps within the masthead, a little irregular along the spine, generally very nice.
