Real Photo Postcard showing studio portrait of handsome young man in suit and tie and holding a straw boater. He is seated on the commonly seen type of small photo studio bench; he wears a ring on his right little finger and some type of pin in his suit lapel. Note how the very stylish plaid tie was arranged for the photo. It looks like his hair color must of been either blond or reddish-blond. On the back is written  “Harry W. Yeager”  and in fact it looks like this could have been his signature.  “July 1918”  is also recorded in lighter writing, and in dark pen,  “Rec.[?] Bantry Bay Ireland 7/  /1918.”

There are multiple possibilities in records for this name in the United States, and nothing is coming up online in the United Kingdom; it’s definitely unexpected to have a name, date and location, but no confirmation for the person. Since the date is 1918, we wonder if this is WWI connected, although if so, then you might think that Harry would have been in uniform.

Divided back, Real Photo Postcard, unused with writing. Dated July 1918.

Price:  $15.00
