  • Quartermaster Department Photograph Request

    Ladies and Gentlemen,

    I'm hoping one of you will be able to help me. I am currently doing a project looking at photographs of civilians associated with the United States army, looking at their facial hair. There is a wonderful image of employees of the Quartermaster Department in Washington, which I've attached. Unfortunately the only version of the image I can find is rather small, making it almost impossible for me to look at the details of the facial hair. Anyone have any idea where I can find a larger version of the image?

      Thanks Mr. Hermann! I'm still learning how to navigate the LOC image files. That was extremely helpful!
