The 7 December 1941 1st extra edition of the ''Honolulu Star-Bulletin'' newspaper announcing the attack on Pearl Harbor. The headline blares: ''WAR! OAHU BOMBED BY JAPANESE PLANES''. Sub-headings read: ''President Roosevelt announced this morning that Japanese planes had attacked Manila and Pearl Harbor'' and an article reads in part: ''...The army has ordered that all civilians stay off the streets and highways and not use telephones...'' The bombing of Pearl Harbor determined the United States' entry into the Second World War. Toning, creasing, and staining to complete 8pp. extra edition paper, else near fine.
