PHOTOGRAPH OF A WORLD WAR ONE ERA USMC SERGEANT SEATED
AT A VICKERS MACHINE GUN:
Identified on the reverse, written in a female hand, as
“Sergt. A. H. Baird” the writer incorrectly stated that
the Sergeant was seated at a “Louis (sic) Machine Gun”
when in fact it is a Vickers. This photo was obtained
from an estate in the Detroit, Michigan area and was
part of a US Marine Corps veteran’s effects.
Unfortunately, no other information was obtained at the
time the photo was acquired, but with a little effort,
I’m sure Sgt. Baird could be fully researched. This
identified World War One era Marine image is quite
unique, particularly as it includes the Vickers Machine
Gun. $25
