    Description

    Original NY Daily News Clipping
    Text of FDR's "Day of Infamy" Speech
    On December 8, 1945 President Franklin Roosevelt addressed
    a joint session of the U.S. Congress to request a declaration of
    war with Japan be approved, justified by their "dastardly" attack
    on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor, Oahu, Hawaii.
    This piece is a clipping from that day's New York Times
    containing the text of that historic address. On the reverse
    of the clipping it also has an article about how the declaration
    was passed by several of the members of Congress.
    Condition: The paper is folded and has rough edges all around.
    It has a 2" tear at the top. It has age toning. In spite of these
    things, it is stirring and it pulls at the emotions of anyone who
    remembers it, and anyone who cares about American history.
    Mounted and behind glass, it would be a fabulous collectible.
