Take a trip down memory lane with this Newspaper Decade Headlines Book and discover the best headlines from the 1940s as reported by the LA Times. Each page is filled with front pages from the major events of your chosen decade.

The front pages in the ‘40s were covered in World War Two news for the first half of the decade, with the attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941 dominating the news worldwide. Early headlines include the Nazi invasion of Europe, Roosevelt’s ‘Arsenal of Democracy’ speech as well as Gandhi’s death in 1948.

There is also comprehensive coverage of the Fort Lauderdale hurricane in 1947, and President Truman’s recognition of Israel. The Name you choose will also be embossed on the front cover, for free in gold.

It's incredible how many articles are featured although some of the print is either too small or faded and not readable. The book and binding are top notch and professionally done.
