Spanish Civil War Photo Album w/152 Orig. Photographs

 Spanish Civil War

Album with 152 gelatin silver photographs, late-1930s, depicting a range of subjects including troops training, a corpse in a trench, a partially-destroyed armored car, airplanes, corpses in the bombed-out square of a town, soldiers on the march, a wounded soldier being carried away, cavalry soldiers, a senior officer (three stars on hat) in a town street, artillery, soldiers in firing positions etc.

There is no date or name written anywhere in the album however one photograph has an inscription on the back of it and so was presumably sent to someone before being put in the album (I think this is an affectionate note to the sender's girlfriend).

The photographs measure 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches (9 x 6.5 cm) each. 143 of the photographs are on glossy paper, and nine are on off-white mat paper. All are in very good condition and are in a period leatherette album that measures 8 x 11 inches.
