1918. Unbound. Very Good. Silver gelatin photograph, measuring 7" x 5" (printed image about 5¼" x 3½"). Several small bumps and creases, a touch of soiling, very good. The image depicts a WWI plane crash, with a deceased German soldier in the wreckage, onlookers seen in the background. Captioned in French in the negative "Cadavres Aviateurs Bohes [Boches]", meaning “Corpses of Boche Aviators”, Boche being a derogatory term for German soldiers.
