Hi Jeff, I am not sure if I remember correctly but I think that Verlinden made a set a few years back. I would check their website, good luck.

You can also find a website that shows historic French newspaper pages (not sure if it exists, but US ones are out there) copy, resize, and print them yourself. I have done it with US ones and it works great. You can see some below in my OIF Bradley.

Hi
Just a suggestion. How about finding out the name of a few French newspapers that have been around for many years, in other words around the time of WW2.
Then see if those papers have a web site. Maybe on that web site they offer front pages of papers from that period as an interest item from the archives etc. or for history students etc.
Plus Model do a set of German Newspapers and Magazine covers but I can't see any French ones.
