1945Best.-Nr. 129721945. Field Marshall III publisher. The Chicago Sun August 7 1945 documents the first full day of American press coverage following the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and the sudden public disclosure of the secret wartime program that produced the weapon. The United States dropped the uranium bomb "Little Boy" on Hiroshima on August 6 and President Harry S. Truman announced its use the same day disclosing the existence of the atomic bomb and declaring that the release of atomic energy opened a new era in humanity's understanding of natural forces. The issue is particularly significant for showing how a mass-circulation American newspaper initially presented the bomb through three interconnected narratives: the destructive results of atomic science the formerly secret industrial infrastructure of the Manhattan Project and expectations for the peacetime uses of atomic power. It provides primary-source evidence for the study of Hiroshima World War II journalism the public revelation of the Manhattan Project nuclear technology and the opening of the atomic age. The Chicago Sun. Chicago: The Chicago Sun Tuesday August 7 1945. 22 pages printed recto and verso. Complete issue. The front page contains extensive atomic-bomb coverage including "Story of Our Secret Weapon"; "Scientists Tell Of Watching First Blast. Steel Tower is Vaporized; Cloud Rises 8 Miles"; and "Truman Visions New Era Powered by Atomic Force." A large photograph depicts an atomic-production facility at the Clinton Engineer Works at Oak Ridge Tennessee giving readers a first visual introduction to part of the immense industrial system that had operated under wartime secrecy. The Clinton Engineer Works served as the Manhattan Project's administrative headquarters and contained the K-25 S-50 and Y-12 facilities used in uranium-isotope separation; enriched uranium produced at Oak Ridge contributed directly to the Hiroshima weapon. The juxtaposition of the first atomic test industrial production Hiroshima and Truman's predictions for atomic energy illustrates how quickly American newspapers began constructing a public explanation for technology that had remained secret throughout most of the war. The August 7 date gives the issue considerable documentary immediacy: American readers were encountering the scale scientific origins industrial production and possible future applications of atomic energy almost simultaneously with learning of its use against a populated city. Truman's August 6 statement itself moved rapidly between military destruction and predictions that atomic energy might eventually supplement coal oil and hydroelectric power a dual framing closely echoed by the headlines preserved here. Oak Ridge's appearance on the front page is equally significant because the sprawling Tennessee installation had been created under extraordinary secrecy beginning in 1942 and encompassed several parallel processes for uranium enrichment. Light age toning and spotting with slight wear to edges; otherwise complete and well preserved. Very good. An unusually immediate newspaper record of the transition from a secret wartime weapons program to a publicly recognized atomic age published one day after Hiroshima and preserving the first explanations offered to American readers of the bomb its production and its anticipated consequences. unknown
1945Best.-Nr. 107541945. Van Kirk Theodore J. "Dutch." Signed photograph of the Enola Gay documenting the B 29 Superfortress used in the first atomic bombing in warfare and bearing an inscription by its navigator. Van Kirk served as navigator aboard the B 29 Enola Gay during the August 6 1945 bombing of Hiroshima guiding the aircraft during its flight from Tinian to Japan and its return. The image supports research into World War II aviation the Manhattan Project atomic warfare and the commemorative culture through which mission participants later identified and interpreted the aircraft. The National WWII Museum confirms Van Kirk's position as navigator aboard the Enola Gay. Color photographic image of the Enola Gay undated. 6 by 12 inches. The aircraft is the primary subject although its viewpoint setting markings and whether it is shown in flight or on the ground are not specified in the supplied description. Van Kirk has inscribed the photograph in blue ink: "To recipient - best wishes and thanks - Dutch Van Kirk Navigator - Enola Gay Gang 6 Aug. 1945." The personalized salutation and informal phrase "Enola Gay Gang" identify the photograph as a later commemorative presentation rather than a contemporaneously inscribed wartime image. On August 6 1945 the Enola Gay departed Tinian carrying the uranium bomb known as "Little Boy" and released it over Hiroshima initiating the use of nuclear weapons in war. The aircraft and its crew subsequently became central to competing historical interpretations of military necessity civilian destruction technological change and the beginning of the atomic age. Van Kirk's full mission inscription connects the pictured aircraft directly to the navigator responsible for plotting its course and records the date through the language of a surviving participant. Blue-ink inscription remains bold and legible; no defects are reported. Near fine. A personally inscribed aircraft portrait joining the material history of the Enola Gay with the later commemoration of the Hiroshima mission. unknown
