WWI Portrait Photo Postcard – Helmeted Doughboy Poses for Camera

October 30, 2011 / portraitsofwar / Leave a comment

Finding nice portraits of doughboys posing in studio is becoming harder and harder given the scarcity and high prices on eBay.  This is one of the better examples in my collection, and although it doesn’t have a unit designation associated with it, I felt that it would go well with my current theme of WWI RPPCs postings on PortraitsofWar.  Enjoy!
