World War I has come to an end...



Item # 707007

November 11, 1918

CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE--EXTRA, Nov. 11, 1918  The bold banner headline says it all: "GREAT WAR ENDS" noting the end of World War I. The banner announcement from Washington notes: "Armistice terms have been signed by Germany, the State departments announced yet 2:45 o'clock this morning. The world war will end this morning at 6 o'clock...The armistice was signed by the German representatives at midnight." with more on the front page.
This is the complete 22 page issue, however the condition is compromised by wear at the central fold with cracking, some perforation, and loss at the right edge of the fold. Two other small holes in the front leaf, and there are various tears at the margins on inside pages (unprepared) extending about 2 inches in from the right margin.

Item from Catalog 348 (released for November, 2024)
