    A colonial from China–some bells and whistles

    Colmar/Elsass Deutschland ...sounds very unfamiliar today! But that's standard unfortunately. My whole family comes from different parts of the former Reich that aren't part of Germany today. BUT: Has anyone an idea why this card ain't written in "Sütterlin" (that type of writing hardly...

    2. kurhessisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 82
