World War I Photographs

Description

Many of the photographs originally published in newspaper and magazine editions were later reprinted in the form of postcards and stereoscope cards. Stereoscope cards required a special viewer which gave the impression of a three dimensional image.

Many postcards highlighted the utter destruction of well-known landmarks, such as the Cathedral at Reims, France, and the Cloth Hall at Ypres, Belgium.
