Old Loose Album Pages
Military Training Camp &
Various Scenes
c1919
Photos on these album pages are mostly of soldiers in training at either Fort McClellan or Camp Sheridan in Alabama. Many of the photos, though pasted down, were developed in nearby Birmingham which may be a clue to the exact training facility. All photos date to approximately 1919. Three photos (seen below) + one are loose. 75 photographs in total. A number of these have writing on the back if they can be safely removed from the old black construction paper.
I've scanned everything and there's some great historic imagery. A number of pictures feature local folks like the children seen in the first photo. There's also a few images related to road building and the Kentucky Rock Asphalt Company ~ a company that was chartered in 1917 to quarry, crush, and market a bitulithic asphalt sold under the name of "Kyrock".
Also captured on these album pages are some pictures of a large public or private pool. Then there are pictures of an event where a German WWI fighter plane is on display ~ a Fokker D. VII. I suspect these photos may have been taken in Ohio.
First photo seen below has great "Clue" title on the back:
"Bryan with the corn pitcher in the library" : )
