Description:

WORLD WAR I EASTERN FRONT PHOTO ALBUM
Leather-bound photo album, 52pp. 4to., containing 87 photographs, the majority being real-photo postcards taken by German photographers on the Eastern Front during World War I. Scenes depicted include German soldiers in dress uniform and combat gear, with rifles, greatcoats and pickelhaube helmets in evidence, horse-drawn munitions and artillery trains, artillery pieces, the hanging of a Russian spy, Orthodox churches, damaged buildings, a German field kitchen, Russian fortifications, many images of Russian civilians, and most interestingly, group photos of German soldiers with Russian civilians. While many of these images appear to be commercially released, the group portraits appear to be personal prints, and as such are rare images. Also present are six CDV''s, each 2" x 4 1/2", each depicting a German soldier in dress uniform. The photos show some silvering and fading, but are on the whole very good.
