Honolulu Star-Bulletin 1st EXTRA Newspaper - Dec 7, 1941

Rare original December 7, 1941 "1st Extra" edition of the Honolulu Star-Bulletin, published in Honolulu on the day of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The iconic front page announces: "WAR! OAHU BOMBED BY JAPANESE PLANES" This is the original 8-page newspaper, reporting on the attack as events were unfolding, including early casualty reports, military activity, civilian evacuations, antiaircraft action, and the immediate response throughout Honolulu. Exceptional Condition This is an excellent-condition original, especially considering it is nearly 85 years old. • Complete 8-page issue • No tears • No missing sections or pages • No significant edge loss • Original period fold/center crease consistent with normal newspaper storage • Clear, exceptionally well-preserved printing This is not a reproduction or modern reprint. A remarkable and increasingly scarce piece of World War Il and Pearl Harbor history, suitable for a serious collector, historical memorabilia collection, museum-style display, or professional framing. Documented Auction History: Comparable genuine originals have sold at major auction houses for substantial amounts, including a documented US$4,750 sale for an original 1941 Honolulu Star-Bulletin 1st Extra. Serious inquiries from collectors and buyers familiar with historical newspapers appreciated.
