Gents,

I just recently received these postcards in the mail and wanted to share them. The original pictures were taken by G. J. Kavanaugh, of the Chicago Daily News and were designed to show the different facets of the War to those at home. Though they are not rare and seeing that many were produced, my goal is to have them professionally framed and preserved. Sorry in advance for the picture quality for it is still early here and I have not had my sufficient quota of coffee.

The visor arrived this week and I must say I am very happy. I was told that a WW1 Chaplains visor could not be confirmed to have ever existed due the lack of photographic evidence. I have studied the visor and the wear evidence is overwhelming convincing to me as being real. The wear on the leather where the pin is touching is convincing, the insignia is high on the visor and I thought that it may have been moved up but I can not see any holes where the was moved and the wear on the visor where the insignia touches on lower areas is spot on. I maybe looking at the visor with wishful eyes and I would really appreciate an honest assessment.
The visor is not in the greatest condition but to me that’s fine.
