THE CALL BULLETIN, San Francisco, August 14, 1945 

* World War II ends
* Japanese surrenders


The front page has one of the  more dramatic announcements of the end of World War II with a very large, bold banner headline dropped out of a black box: "WAR OVER ! " with a lead-in printed in red ink: "Truman Announces: ". The subhead: "M'Arthur Named to Accept Surrender" with various other reports concerning the surrender of Japan to U.S. forces. A terrific issue for display.
Incomplete issue containing the front and back leafs (4 pages total) of the 1st section only. A little margin wear, nice for display as such.
