What a great original WWII black and white photo of an aviator crew in front of and leaning on an A-17. All of our photos for sale are original black and white photographs that are true to the era stated. Some of our photographs will have slight bends and/or scratches which we will try to point out in each individual listing. Some are glue mounted on heavier paper stock, most are not, please examine the pictures and we'll be happy to answer any questions so feel free to ask. As for our postage cost of $3.50 per image: We charge this because every photo that we send we put in between thin pieces of cardboard and then into an envelope that will fit the selected picture in order to ensure that they arrive undamaged. We discovered through USPS that once you insert cardboard into an envelope, it is no longer regarded as an envelope but a package and therefore costs are slightly higher. Our point is this: It is our intention to get these mailed to our buyers in the good condition in which they are shown in the pictures seen in our listing. We will always do multiple purchases for a lesser cost in shipping. Again, please allow for that conversation prior to a purchase. Thank you for looking!
