    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Reims6.jpg Hi....More 'stuff'!!!! Have a 1914 Pre and 1918 Post B&W picture postcard booklet of Reims, France. That's basically all I know about it as I could not find much about it online. Did not see the exact booklet, but one or two similar. Inside, there are about 20 scenes....each of before and after bombing and each separated with tissue paper. Any input would be MOST appreciated and as ALWAYS, THANK EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

    I cannot recall seeing that excat one bur they are not uncommon for French towns in WWI. The damage was mostly shelling at that period, bombing was not quite that devastating in WWI

    Thanks Af.....guess I never really thought about a difference before between 'shelling' and 'bombing'!!! Anyone think there's any value there???
