Original era photography and production. Another great vintage postcard, this time of two Doughboys shaking hands. The soldier on the right has decorated himself with a number of captured German awards, including a Pilots Badge and several Iron Crosses. On his hip, he is shown wearing a pistol belt with a canvas holster with metal reinforced tip, and in his left hand the muzzle of a M1903 Springfield. Barely visible on his left shoulder is the insignia of the US Third Army. Wonderful old postcard and one from our own collection.
