Sepia 1940s

The William Hoff RPPC Set 1

Individual Hi rez scans from the Post Card set from Mario R. Maipid. Thanks Mario. There are 12 cards in the set and each is about 2" x 3" Real Photo Postcards (RPPC) in a cardboard pocket pouch, printed on photo paper in a darkroom and sold at the PX. This one says set 1, so there may be more sets. Probably WWII era. The photos were taken by William Hoff, who was also La Guardia Airport's official photographer.
​Click on each postcard to enlarge.
