October 18, 1989
SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER--EARTHQUAKE EXTRA, Oct. 18, 1989 

* San Francisco earthquake
* Best publication to be had ?


This was one of the earliest editions on the street after the earthquake. Beneath the dateline of: "5:04 p.m., Oct. 17, 1989" is the banner head: "7.0 Quake Stuns Bay" with various related subheads, plus a large photo of a collapsed apartment building. All 16 pages are reports concerning the earthquake with a wealth of photos, including one from the World Series game which was in progress at the time.
Sixteen pages, nice condition. Great to have from the city where the earthquake happened.
