Four soldiers posing, three in drag, with an injured soldier seated in the centre. Photographic postcard, 191-.
An unidentified costume party group standing around a central seated man in a dressing gown with a bandaged foot. The hastily improvised drag worn by three of the subjects would indicate a less well resourced and organized concert party, possibly quite early in World War I. Probably French or Belgian, in view of Brussels provenance of print catalogued
Part of James Gardiner Collection: photographs of military, naval, and prisoner-of-war camp drag.
