Description

Collection of 4 Guernsey newspapers from the time of the occupation. 2 are from 1940 and 1 from 1941 and 1942 and generally regarded as more interesting as a result with more news

The 4 newspapers are as follows:

The Star Tuesday August 13 1940
Evening Press Friday October 25 1940
Evening Press Thursday October 9 1941
The Star Thursday April 23 1942

Interesting historical items from the only part of the British Isles to be occupied by the Germans during World War 2. They give an insight into the news available at the time and life on the Island.

Articles include: Daily/Today’s lesson in German (which was often cut out of the paper at the time) War news slanted from the German perspective, official notices, items wanted and for sale, cinema showings, news from relatives and friends and much more

Papers in generally good condition with some wear and tear given age and have been folded in four but all very readable
