December 09, 1914

EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Dec. 9, 1914

* Battle of the Falkland Islands, South Atlantic
* British Royal vs. Imperial German Navy


The front page has a terrific banner headline:  "ENGLISH DESTROY 3 OF GERMAN PACIFIC FLEET" with very brief text. (see)  An early report here is probably the reason for the lack of details. Great for display as such. 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 16 pages, small library stamp within the masthead, a little irregular along the spine, generally very nice.
