Time Magazine - WWII and D-Day - June 12, 1944
Golden Age Time Magazines
When scouring the internet for old comics, occasionally you find something cool that falls into the paper publication category but isn't a funny book. I have acquired a few of these from the time period and I must say, they are pretty cheap and easily affordable. They are time capsules that offer a glimpse into what life was like about 70 years ago, view the world that now refer to as the Greatest Generation.
This is one of the few issues I own and one of the "cooler" issues to have. I picked this up in 2010 after realizing that It was Time's earliest publication reporting on the invasion of Normandy. Inside are articles that would seem out of place by today's standards. There is the standard reporting, war propaganda, features on officers and other areas of interests of the time. The advertisements are quite distinct for the time.
I do not think I would ever get this CGC'd as it is more beneficial, ads and all to page through. The books are relatively cheap to obtain even in 6.0-8.0 condition. If the opportunity arises for you to obtain some of the older copies, I urge you to do so and give it a read. I found them pretty interesting and thought I would share.
