World War I WW1 Era Scrapbook Ephemera, Sailors Seamen, Naval Ships, Sextant

Description: World War I (WW1) Era Scrapbook Ephemera, Sailors Seamen, Naval Ships, Sextant, African American Black Group Photo, Collectible Ephemera This is one scrapbook page is from a larger World War I scrapbook. I am selling the pages separately as some of the pages contain photos of family members that I choose to keep. Other pages from this same scrapbook are or will be listed soon should you be interested in purchasing more than one. There are 4 photographs on only one side of the page. o One of the photographs is of a seaman dressed in all white. He is leaning against what I believe is a lifeboat. He is probably on a ship. o Another photograph is of two seamen. They are also dressed in white and likely on a ship. This photo is either faded or underdeveloped. oA third photograph is of a seaman using what I believe is a sextant. This photo is “fuzzy” toward the bottom. o The last photo is of nine African-American seamen. This photo is also faded and/or underdeveloped with some soiling. However, it is probably the best of the four photographs. I know little about these photos as they are not labeled as some of the others are in this old scrapbook. What is likely obvious is that these photos are not taken professionally. Still, they are an interesting peek into history. If you have more information for me, I am happy to hear from you. Thanks! Each photograph measures about 5.5 inches by about 3.5 inches Currently, the page these photos are mounted on is chipped around the edges but measures roughly 14 inches by 12 inches. Please be aware, that I may trim the paper these photos are mounted on to ensure better shipping in a reasonable-size envelope. While I am accepting returns, please get all your questions answered before you purchase as these are fragile and will not withstand a lot of postal back and forth. PLEASE READ: All items I list as vintage, antique and/or collectible have had previous lives and show wear appropriate to their age, some more than others. All the items I am selling come from my family’s estates of Northern Michigan, Ohio farm country, or Boston and Cape Cod. In most cases, I leave the deep cleaning, polishing and/or repairs, or not, up to the buyer. I describe each item honestly and to the best of my ability, however, I am definitely NOT an expert on every item I list. Please read item descriptions carefully and contact me with your questions before you buy. Please see the photos and feel free to ask questions. Thanks!

I cannot combine shipping on items that are especially fragile and need to be packaged separately or items purchased under the eBay Buy It Now offer. Because I am generally selling quite old items, I prefer to ship Priority Mail in order to reduce the time fragile items are in the post. Whenever I am able to safely ship using a less expensive option I will do so. I will ship only to the address you have provided in your eBay account. Please do not ask me to change the shipping address. If your item should arrive damaged, please contact me immediately and retain the original packaging. I will require from you photo proof of damage to the item and the packaging. Please send as many photos as necessary to provide clear proof to the carrier of damage. And please retain the damaged item and the packaging as long as necessary. Some carriers require the physical proof instead of photos. If I do not insure the item through the carrier, I will personally provide a full refund, including shipping costs. If I have insured the item, I will provide to you information regarding collecting insurance.

International Buyers: Please contact me before buying if you are from outside the U.S.. I will be happy to calculate Shipping and Handling for an international address.
