This article was taken from a damaged December 2016 American Riflemen magazine in the hopes someone will enjoy the topic of the historical article about the men and guns who defended Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 from the attacking Japanese Forces. The guns ranged from M1911A1 pistols, 03 Springfields and Browning machine guns. The article was written by Martin K. A. Morgan and is filled with lots of factual information, much of which is not read about as much as the rest of the Pearl Harbor information commonly found. It also has lots of photographs in it from the actual day of the event. Great article for collectors, students, professors, teachers, etc. so buy this one while can, only one I could find on eCRATER when listed.One day these old ads will be gone and they don't make them like this anymore. The ads from the 1890's up to about mid 1960's were the best of the best no matter what was being advertised they usually drew your attention and held it. Not only the ads but many of the products or brands are also gone, changed names or been replaced. As the old print periodicals become more scarce so do the ads that gave life and color to those remembered times helping us to recall and document those times. They are living reminders of who we used to be & give us a snapshot in time of style, beliefs, activities and daily life quite different from our own. They are excellent for research needs for School/College,for Framing, to use as Decor in Home, Garage, Bar, Man Cave, Business; also great as Retro Decor, Art Decor, Unique Gifts, Junk Journals, Scrapbook,Vision Boards etc! Old ads usually have lots of detailed info about the product to help with research & many are a great substitute for expensive art, adding to your Decor and making a great conversation piece. They all ship flat covered with plastic or poly bags in between sheets of flat cardboard covered with tissue paper and then packaged marked with stickers to handle with care.
