- Lot Description
A Framed Newspaper, titled “Southtown Economist”, Chicago August 14, 1945, “Extra Victory”. Blazing Headline, “WAR ENDS! ALL SHOOTING STOPS,” in 4” type. Above the masthead is the bold, dark signature “Paul Tibbets, 4-25-98”. Of course, it was Paul Tibbets who, On 6 August 1945, dropped Little Boy atomic bomb on Hiroshima. The newspaper also proudly displays an 8” x 10”, captioned “American Flag “Long May She Wave”. The right column in bold large type face, “Washington August 14, 6:02 Chicago time, President Truman announced officially that Japan ad surrendered unconditionally ....” Japan's surrender was announced by President Truman on August 14, 1945, at 7 p.m. in Washington D.C., triggering massive celebrations (V-J Day in the U.S.), though the formal signing on the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay occurred on September 2, 1945, at 9:04 a.m. (Tokyo time), officially ending World War II. The initial announcement on August 14th, due to time zones, was August 15th in Japan, when Emperor Hirohito's acceptance was broadcast, marking the effective end.
