Productdetails

Two original black-and-white photographic snapshots, each a continuous-tone, deckle-edge silver gelatin print (no halftone dot pattern under magnification), depicting the weathered stone facade and bell tower of a colonial-era church or similar masonry structure in what appears to be a tropical setting — note the palm tree, open ground, and pedestrians in local dress passing the building in both views. Backs carry a "NOV 21 1945" processing/date stamp and a "Sweigart's" photofinisher imprint from York, PA, along with handwritten notes. This stamp reflects where and when the film was developed, not necessarily where the photographs were taken — the exact location depicted is unconfirmed. Together with the stamp, the images give a firm WWII-era (1945) dating. Condition: VG, consistent with deckle-edge snapshot prints of the period; please review photos closely as the images shown are of the actual items. Subject: Weathered colonial-style stone architecture, possibly a church or mission ruin, tropical location. Format: Deckle-edge silver gelatin real photo snapshots. Quantity: Two (2) unique photographs. Developer mark: Sweigart's, York, PA. Items are packaged securely and shipped fast.
