World War II has ended...



Item # 715493

August 14, 1945

PITTSBURGH SUN-TELEGRAPH--EXTRA, Pennsylvania, Aug. 14, 1945  The bold, banner headline reports: "President Truman Announces: WAR OVER McArthur to Rule Japan" with a large, celebratory photo on the front page.
Being an "Extra" edition this may be complete in ten pages, otherwise it is the complete first section of two. A piece cut from the back leaf does not affect war-related items, minor wear at the margins, generally good.
Nice to have in an August 14 newspaper, as most reports of the war's end are dated August 15.

Item from our most recent catalog - #365 - released for April, 2026
