    Really incredible (well, to me, anyway) WW1 photos.

    A friend bought these photos a couple of weeks ago with the intention of selling them on Ebay, and brought them round to my place to show me. He made a huge mistake, knowing I am into anything Great War related, and I finally pestered him into selling the lot to me. The moment I saw them I knew I had to have them. The subject matter is incredible, one is of the Duke of Connaught reviewing American officers, two are of the Britishicon First Sea Lord reviewing American sailors. Several images of destruction in France and Belgiumicon, and one that is incredibly moving, British wounded being taken from a ship. The backs of all of them are marked similarly as the example I have shown, I am assuming they are British press photos. I plan on framing these, and displaying them. I have since pored over them for hours, an amazing piece of history to me. Wanted to share, thanks!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
