Ever wonder how doughboys sent their photo postcards home? I actually don’t own a single example of a postmarked photo postcard from the war, but recently came across a grouping that contained an envelope and postcard sent home by a 42nd Division soldier. A member of the 151st Field Artillery, Frank Svec sent home a studio portrait shot of himself. Not incredibly rare, but a good example of how WWI photos were sent during the war. The 42nd Division is one of my favorite divisions, so this is an addition “kicker”.
Portraits of War 
I have 3 photos of my grandfather taken in 1917 at Kelly Field. He trained in Jennys and the plan was to deploy overseas but the war came to an end. Would you like digital copies of them for your blog?
