Old WW1 photos from behind the lines. (1 Viewer)

[Obee]

Not all of the Great War was spent in the trenches fighting, a lot of the time was passed with the mundane tasks of just getting on with life.

In these 4 'old photos' taken by an unknown photographer in 1915 we can see what went on....


Casualty clearance....


Working party clearing rubble....


A picture of the 'boys' who survived the last onslaught...


Resting at then end of a hard day and enjoying some hot food...


All figures are Rose Miniatures made by John Eden Studios and painted (in khaki and light blue shirts) for a local collector here in Perth.

Hope you like my latest work,

John
