    World War I photographs (and other WWI items) are gaining in desirability and value as we approach the centennial.

    The most eagerly sought photographs are "patched" images-- photos that show the soldier wearing their unit patches.

    This particular Real Photo PostCard (RPPC) depicts a shoulder with his 81st Division patch on his shoulder. Additionally, he has a 321st Infantry collar disc mounted to his hat.

    The post card is French made, postally unused and has the soldier's identification on the back.

    Reproduction of these image is not authorized.
