''The New York Times'' 3 September 1939 edition, the day Britain and France declared war on Nazi Germany. Headline reports, ''Allies Consider Time Limit; Will Tell Decision Today'' and ''Major Battle Near''. Germany began its invasion of Poland two days prior and the world awaited the Allies reaction as the deadline for Germany's retreat expired. Light toning to edges of 17'' x 22.25'' newspaper running 20pp.; chipping to left edge from previous binding. Overall very good plus.
