Item # 705941

June 02, 1898

THE PATRIOT, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, June 2, 1898  A terrific, graphic issue on the taking of Fort El Morro at Puerto Rico during the Spanish-American War.
The banner headline reports: "EL MORRO FORT DESTROYED" with a large print of the U.S. flag captioned: "But 'Old Glory' Still Floats". A very nice display issue as such.
