Description: This series of 3 real photo postcards feature the blind folding and execution of spies by German Soldiers. #1 says "Spies being blind folded to be shot, German picture". #2 says "Spies lined up to be shot", and #3 says "Spies after being shot (by) Germans". These three cards were from an album made by Captain (Dr.) Wm. Phillips and presented to his son Claude Phillips MP. The inside label of the albums said "Souvenir cards of Europe & War 1914-1918 presented to Claude Phillips by Father, Captain Wm Phillips, 90th Division AEF." Notes on other cards indicate that some of the photo postcards were obtained from German prisoners, and these appear to be just that. Unposted. All 3 cards have writing on the back. Please read full description for background on these postcards. All cards have a slight curve as is common with real photo postcards. Very sharp images with some fading, plus some edge and corner wear, but overall nice shape. Please see photos of postcard for condition and ask any questions before purchase. Please like and follow my eBay store Groovy Postcards, I'm adding hundreds of new postcards every month. Thanks!
