Soldier Postcard to Miss Eva Devore, Oklahoma, c. 1910.

This soldier wears "U.S." on his collar and the white piping and crossed rifles of the infantry, but without any unit number or letter. The photograph is a postcard (never stamped or mailed) addressed to "Miss Eva Devore, Renfrou, R.D. #2, Okla." The "giant" fingerprints on the image were from handling the film negative before it was developed as a postcard.
