Accepting bids for a spectacular Octber 26 1944 photograph of a US bombing run on Japanese shipping in the Port of Hong Kong. Aerial photograph gives a superb, crisp view of the port, of shipping just after being attacked by US bombers and of a Japanese Zero giving chase to the US bomber the photo is being taken from. A spectacular photograph. This is an original, 1944 photograph (printed in 1944, NOT a later reproduction). This particular photograph was in the possession of Washington D.C. newspaper, the Washington Evening Star. The guy I bought these from worked at the long defunct newspaper and saved these from the trash when the paper decided to clean house some years after the war. Photo comes with original press release paper, which describes the photograph.Shipping $3 in US, $8 Europe/India/Far East.
