1914 First Battle of the Aisne...



Item # 708566

September 16, 1914

EVENING TRIBUNE, San Diego, Sept. 16, 1914

* First Battle of the Aisne River - France
* German Empire vs. France & United Kingdom
* General Alexander von Kluck captured


The front page has a banner heading:  "Second Great Battle Is Being Fought in France"  with subhead. (see images) 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 12 pages, 2 small library stamp within the masthead, a little irregular along the spine, generally very nice.
