By [MEXICAN BORDER WAR]
San Antonio: Dahrooge & Co, n.d. [ca. 1910]. A small tan card folding chemise containing a concertina style pull out of 20 monochrome images, titled to the front panel with space for an address for postal use, with an advertisment for the Dahrooge Co. to the rear panel. A little wear and toning to the edges of the chemise, otherwise a very good, clean example.

A souvenir collection of images depicting US soldiers performing drills, queuing at chow hall, dragging artillery etc. interspersed with images of local Mexican people, a horrifying jury-rigged armored vehicle, Mexican artillery preparing to engage, and a variety of scenery shots.
