Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Printed colour map on a single newspaper leaf 37.5 x 53.2 cm; 44.7 x 59.8 cm (sheet), inset legend, marginal browning and at the folds, some undulation of paper and tide mark along lower section but in remarkably bright very good condition. Strategic map published in the Chicago Daily Tribune "The World's Greatest Newspaper" on June 5th 1942, two days after the Japanese attack on Dutch Harbor, the site of the US army and navy bases in the Aleutians, and as it transpired, at the outset of the Battle of MIdway. The owner and proprietor of the Tribune, Robert McCormick, was staunchly against the United States entering the war and had firm views, once it had occurred, that American resources should not be used defending the British Empire. Famously, the Tribune published the "Victory Program," Roosevelt?s military plan to prepare the United States for possible entry into World War II, and was subject to prosecution for an alleged violation of the Espionage Act relating to the newspaper?s front-page account of the Battle of Midway, 4-7 June, 1942. It became an important test case for the limits of free speech and censorship during war-time. The Legend shows territorial Control of Ocean Areas, marking Japanese Naval and Air bases as of 1941 and "according to latest reports" those established in the first six months of 1942. Also shown are pre-war sovereignties (as at the bombing of Pearl Harbour on December 7th 1941). The Anson Archipelago is shown, but a question mark "indicates islands etc., whose existence or give position is doubtful?".
