The sole noteworthy printed detail on the reverse of the postcard is the code ‘G. / F. 7.’. || || A real photographic postcard showing a British soldier and five children || Photograph

The unnamed family that was photographed in an unknown photographer’s studio comprises a small girl, seated at the front, her older sister and brother, and their mother and soldier–father, the details of whose collar and cap badges are unclear. The handwritten message on the back reads, ‘Wishing you both a Happy Christmas’. || A real photographic postcard || || A photograph of a British soldier and his family || Front || Photograph
