HMS Ark Royal sinks...



Item # 716352

November 14, 1941

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, Nov. 14, 1941

* HMS Ark Royal sunk by torpedo
* Royal Navy aircraft carrier
* German U-81 boat submarine attack


The front page has a single-column headline: "AIRCRAFT CARRIER ARK ROYAL SUNK BY SUBMARINE IN MEDITERRANEAN", with multiple subheads and a large photo. Nice for display. The article continues on page 4 and includes another related photo. This is a first report coverage on the sinking of the HMS Ark Royal by a German U-boat during World War II.
Complete with 56 pages, light toning and minor wear at the margins, a few non-archival mends in the margins, some small binding holes along the spine, small library stamp in the masthead, generally nice.

Item from Catalog #355 (released for June, 2025)
