I wonder what % of the US population doesn't even know today is the anniversary.

 

The % that is unaware increases as each year passes.

 

Sadly, I'm sure that's true.

 

Local station this morning was taking in phone calls from old timers so they could share: where they were and how they heard about the attack. Was a good way to commute in. (thumbs u

Since Dec 7 was a Sunday it seems unlikely there'd be any genuine comic book arrivals on that date. Newspaper strips yes and Spirit section appeared that day

 

Unless a lazy clerk got to the comics a few days late that week. Although, I wonder if stores closed that day once word got out about the attack.

yah, stamping comics was the last thing they were thinking of....

 

Well, think about what books were on the stands in Dec '41....?
