EXTREMELY RARE Real Photo Postcard Image taken in France in 1918 and a related newspaper clipping on scrapbook paper. This is a duplicate from a much larger lot. The Hello Girls pictured are Marthe (left, seated) and Bertha Carrel, sisters and part of the 2nd Unit sent overseas. Marthe was President Woodrow Wilson's operator at the Murat Palace in Paris and sailed home with him on the George Washington. Bertha served as the senior operator for Pershing's HQ in Paris. Marthe was born in Switzerland, and Bertha was a native of Fort Wayne, IN. The family was Swiss and the spoke French at home. Blind-stamped to Paris photographer, and about as clean as the day it was produced, was in an album. Comes with a newspaper article about the Hello Girls and picturing Marthe Carrel on board the George Washington. The other material shown relates to her is for your info, it is NOT printed out in the lot, so save it if you need it. Bertha, her husband Lt. Roy Miller (Air Service Engineer) and Marthe ended up near San Diego, CA.
DC has shafted us with nutsy fuel costs, and the post office hits me with occasional 'rural address' surcharges. I can't predict if that will be you until I print the postage, so my postage rates have gone up to cover this eventuality.
