There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Thanks Fibber,
Very interesting photos. A shame that there was no indication of the provenance of these photos. Were they part of a collection and what was the photographic process etc? Some of these look like the work of Albert Kahn, a Frenchman who took colour photographs all over the world in the early 20th century. Some of his stuff was shot around Amiens and Rheims during the First World War.

Some of those photos did look familiar, so I did a quick search for Albert Kahn's work during the First World War. This site was one of several useful results:
