    GRUMMAN TBF AVENGER SHANGHAI CHINA V-J DAY ORIGINAL WW2 PRESS PHOTO SUZHOU CREEK
    Great vintage World War Two Press photo of Grumman TBF Avenger over Shanghai, China on V-J day,  "American Eagle spreads its wings over the City as Shanghai celebrates its belated V-J Day - It was no fault of the people of Shanghai that they had to celebrate their V-J Day with a delay as late as September 2nd. But their enthusiasm made up for the delay. Here a warplane from one of the carriers of the mighty U.S. Pacific fleet flies over Shanghai on the city's V-Day. Identified points are: The Astor Hotel on the right; The Old British Consulate on the left bank of the creek. As the planes flew over the buildings, people lined the water's edge to stare up at the flying Aruaea"
    (approximately 25cm x 17cm), with Keystone press stamp & description to rear.
