This metal badge measures two and a half inches long and 1 3/4 inches wide.  This is a scarce interesting badge that was issued during WWI. 

There are two books in this listing.  The first book is titled Poster of the First World War by Maurice Rickards  New York: Walker and Company, 1968. Hardcover with worn dust jacket. . f Reproductions of posters used around the world in World War I. Clean interior 1st Edition.  The second book is a soft cover book, with creases on the cover. The author is George Theofiles.  Published in 1970 and all illustrations of WII posters.  

Some corner wear.  Never mailed but this ship was active during WWI

Through the miracle of Google I was able to translate this unused postcard which really did not  need explaining. A poignant scene.

Clean, unused card

Minor wear to this unused card showing a soldier posed in front of a tent.

Nice photo of a soldier in his uniform. Hostetler was the photographer.

Interesting image of a young US soldier in WWI who was wounded in France. Large crease in middle of card, not that noticible. This card was produced by the Chicago Daily Times.

Six different postcards printed in Paris and presumably showing the destroyed buildings there caused by the German Army during World War I. Some have small corner creases and other minor wear. Ink inscription on most of the cards which appear to read Menitory France but not sure about that. One of the cards was mailed with a free frank soldier mailing and censor stamps.

Three postcards showing the destruction in Paris France (I think) by the German army during World War I. The cards appear to have been removed from a sheet of other cards. Note the edges that are perforated. Two of the cards were actually mailed and has the free frank of "Soldiers Mail" and also bears the soldiers name with Censor stamps. See the scans.

Unused post card with some edge and corner wear and a puncture mark on this leg.

7/8 of an inch. Two small spots

Attractive ticket for a victory parade given in New York Clity under the auspices of May John F Hylan. This ticket is for the Official Stand. Not dated. World War I. General Pershing

Love this image which measures 3 and a half by 2 and a half inches. Shows a Dough Boy in an outdoor scene having his boots shined by a young black boy. Nice clarity though the image is somewhat dark. The first scan shows the true appearance and I have lightened the second one up so you can see it more clearly. Some emulsion in the area to the left of the soldier which looks like a wooden structure. Also a long scratch which is visible under magnification. General condition of this tintype is clearly visable on the scans. I should mention that there are some slight bends which don't affect the appearance.

Postally unused card showing Ambulances all lined up at the USA Base Hospital at Camp Merritt New Jersey. Worn corners and a couple of rough areas on the edges.

Victory parade on the 4th of July in 1918. Unused, produced by the Red Cross which has its emblem on the reverse. Floppy with rounded corners. World War I

World War I postcard. Not used postally. Wear to the corners with one corner crease.

Undivided back and not postally used. Minimal wear. Here is information on the war ship found on the web. USS DeKalb, a 14,180-ton (displacement) troop transport, was built at Stettin, Germany, in 1904 as the passenger liner Prinz Eitel Friedrich. She was a German Navy auxiliary cruiser during the first seven months of World War I, then was interned in the United States. Seized when the U.S. entered the conflict in 1917, she was turned over to the Navy, converted to a troopship at the Philadelphia Navy Yard and renamed DeKalb. She was commissioned in May 1917 and a month later helped carry the first contingent of U.S. troops to the European war zone. Later registered as ID # 3010, she continued in her vital work until the fighting ended in November 1918. During this time DeKalb made a total of eleven trans-Atlantic voyages, transporting over eleven-thousand men. After the Armistice, she reversed the process, bringing home more than twenty-thousand troops in eight trips. USS DeKalb was decommissioned in September 1919 and transferred to the U.S. Shipping Board. Subsequently refitted for commercial employment, she operated as SS Mount Clay during the early 1920s and was scrapped in 1934.

Eight, large postcards, all different. They were sent in an envelope with a stamp "Officers Open Mess "Official" 435 CSG-Rhein Main AB" I'm assuming that this was sent during the war but is not dated so am not sure.

This is a lot of fifteen buttons from World War I.

Original, authentic poster by the famous artist, Howard Chandler Christy who made some of the most famous WWI posters. This is a large sheet, 40 inches by 27. See scan. Rather large chunk out of the edge on the left hand side in the flag which can be seen in the scan. Other condition problems include many tears and chipping along all of the edges. Most of the tears have been repaired with archival, acid free tape on the reverse. All of these rough areas could be framed out. Heavy fold across the middle as mailed and some tears there have also been repaired. There was one area in the top area where the lithograph was missing and it showed white. This was touched up with water colors which makes it difficult to spot. Overall an impressive display. Will not mail in the frame.

This unused postcard shows a group of German Soldiers being guarded by a French soldier. Ink notation which reads "Boche" which is a French slang word for ‘rascal’ first applied to German soldiers during World War One.

Minor wear to this unused postcard showing the results of bombing of St Miheil during World War I.

These unused postcards were made in Germany, and clearly are reprints. Because I found them in a lot where the oldest items were WWII, I believe them to be old reprints. The Zeppelins, were dirigibles and were used by the German army during World War I for bombing and scouting. They were used after the war for commercial purposes until the explosion of the Hindenburg.

Unused postcard in good condition. Pencil ID on the bottom edge of the card.

This poster measures 22 by 14 inches. Thumb tack holes in each corner and another at mid top edge. Light creases at a a couple of corners. Half inch tear in margin. "Sow the seeds of Victory plant & raise your own vegetables". This poster was encouraging the citizens to grow their own victory gardens. Issued in 1918 by the National War Garden Commission, according to the printing on the front. See scan for the little piece of paper on the back which asks that the poster be displayed to help the war effort. Flagg created approximately 45 posters for the war effort, including the most famous war poster of all, "Uncle Sam Needs You."
