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.
