    NICE FIND! On the internet, purchased a lot of vintage photo snap shots. I don't think the seller had any idea who this photo was of. Measures 2" X 3", a nice candid photo taken of General Pershing & his staff leaving some building. Unknown if this is PRE WWI or Post WWI, as there is no date on the back side of this photo.
    Makes a nice addition to my collection, and can't beat the price I paid for it either!

      General Pershing was promoted to a 4 star General on Oct 1917. based on the what I can see in the photo he is wearing one medal on his chest. This photo could be taken at the start of WW1.
