Large March 19, 1945 photograph of the first wave of American Marines battling for every inch of sand on Iwo Jima as they slowly advance toward Mt. Surabachi and victory. Stamped on the back by the Marines and with the photographer credit of Dreyfuss, this is a famous image in great shape that is the only vintage example of this image we have ever handled! A work of WWII art that is being offered here fresh out of a newspaper archive.
