1917 Poignant photograph of soldiers at Christmas in Europe receiving their mail from home and flashing smiles despite being in the lowest of circumstances. Stamped on the back with the date and purple text from the Western Newspaper Union, this presents well in great shape. One of the only images of it's type we have ever seen and the condition is pretty nice with some chipping off the left corners.
