Iconic issues of the weekly newspaper focusing on WWII raging around the world. Very well-preserved, square, tight and generally clean throughout with little or no toning or foxing. Some fairly mild rubbing to edges and tips. Some discoloration spots on boards. A couple of internal, unobtrusive tape repairs.
