Imperial German Post Cards.
I recently added a few more WW1 period post cards to the collection.
The first one is a studio portrait of a soldier of the Landwerh Battalion 101.
I find this image quite poignant with a certain sadness in the subjects eyes. There is nothing written on the back which leads me to wonder if perhaps the soldier was KIA before the card was ever posted??

Hi Andy,
I should imagine he was from Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 101. This Saxon regiment was formed at mobilisation in Bautzen and Zittau. Nice photo.

Glenn
I agree. -- Nice photo.

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
Great photo Andy. Nice to see in full size.
Waiting for the others
Too bad it wasn't for the 100th. If so I would be begging to buy it from you
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them
