1942 Naval Battle of Guadalcanal victory...



Item # 699523

November 17, 1942

THE CHICAGO SUN, November 17, 1942

* Naval Battle of Guadalcanal
* Savo Island - Solomons


The front page has a nice banner headline: "MIGHTY JAP FLEET CRUSHED; 30,000 of Enemy Believed Slain; U.S. SINKS 23 SHIPS, LOSSES 8" with subheads and two related photos. First report coverage on the U.S. victory in the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.
Twenty-eight pages, a damaged issue having wear along the central fold and margins with some archival mending and a little text loss, still nice for display as such.
