Title: [Large Group of Over 200 Images Taken and Collected by an American Aid Worker During World War I]
Author: [World War I Photographica]. Tolman, William H.
Seller: McBride Rare Books (United States)
Condition: Very good.
Description: [Various locations in Europe, mostly France, 1918. Very good.. 206 original black-and-white photographs, between 3.5 x 2.5 inches and 5 x 7 inches. Occasional minor wear, light chipping, or short tears to images, but most are in very good or better condition. An informative collection of contemporary photographs detailing the impact of the First World War in France. The images include numerous images showing the destruction of the war across France, some casualties of the war, group portraits of military officers and politicians, street scenes and parade shots picturing dignitaries and military figures (often in motorized vehicles but sometimes on horseback or on foot), scenes along railroad lines, scenes in factories both functional and bombed out, numerous shots featuring the architecture and statuary in France, street scenes in numerous French towns and villages, and much more. A handful of small groups of images are held within a single sheet of paper identifying a common location or shared subject matter, such as a pair of images from Saint-Quentin (including a photo of a group of German prisoners at a rail station there), seven images of flowers in Toulouse, several images in Amiens including street scenes and a few with military content, numerous images in Reims and Verdun, three images documenting the destruction in Noyon, and so forth. In addition to the war content, the collection provides a broad view of the urban architecture and variety of landscape in World War I-era France, among other research-worthy topics. Particularly interesting images feature a group of women busily writing dispatches, a larger group of women working in a textile factory, the statue of Joan of Arc in Reims, soldiers cutting vegetables outside the citadel at Verdun, the ruins of Sainte-Genevieve, a town scene in the village of St. Martin, a large group of men repairing the railroad, an elderly woman standing below a bombed-out elevated railroad in Charleville, and a crowded street scene and parade in Reichshoffen. Two images feature soldiers and resident of Reims rescuing large framed paintings from the Hôtel de Ville; both images feature men carrying a single large painting down the cobblestoned streets of the city. In addition to the images featuring human subjects and scenery, four photographs memorialize signage the photographer came across in his time in Europe. One concerns the evacuation of a town in France in April 1916, another informs the French public that German soldiers are only allowed to pay for goods with certain vouchers, the third sign lists the officials responsible for railway security in Noyon, dated October 8, 1916, and the last pictures a British Red Cross poster. The collection is rounded out by a handful of images in Sweden, England, and Egypt. The photographs are occasionally annotated on the verso in pencil, identifying the subject, location, and/or the setting of the images. Several of the images include a personal stamp on the verso belonging to William H. Tolman, Ph.D. of Pawtucket, Rhode Island and New York City. According to newspaper records, Dr. William H. Tolman (1861-1958) was a "social economist" and "social service expert, lecturer and writer" who graduated from Brown University, was an active citizen of Pawtucket, was decorated by the regent of Hungary for creating a chapter of the YMCA in that country, and while in New York City, founded and served as the director of the American Museum of Safety and Sanitation, from which he resigned in 1916. From about that year to 1920, Tolman engaged in welfare work in Europe, and served as director of the YMCA in Bordeaux, France, spurring his personal interest in France and the First World War. A fascinating group of photographs documenting numerous scenes during the First World War.
