| The picture below shows a larger view of the (2) United States Military World War II South Pacific Air Strip Souvenir Shop Photograph Negatives in this lot. These photo negatives are believed to be of a souvenir shop, at a U.S. military airstrip, on an island, somewhere in the South Pacific during World War II. These were with other negatives and photographs from the same island. There are many small items that a Soldier, Airman, or Sailor could purchase for use or to send back to their Sweetheart, Girlfriend, Mother, Child, or others in the States. Some of the many items that can be seen on the shelves are as follows: Lamps
Vases
Dolls
Plush Animals
Toys
Rattle
Jewelry
Necklaces
Beads
Bracelets
Pins
Earrings
Perfumes
Cosmetics
Miniatures
''Shield Rite'' Sunglasses

Stationery
Handkerchiefs
Linens
Candy, Candies, Chocolates, Gum
... and much more ... There is also an old cash register that can be seen buried under many gift items. Both of these for one price! The negatives each measure 1-3/4'' x 2-5/8''. They appear to be in mint condition as pictured. |
