    Description

    This photo shows British messenger war dogs being trained to fearlessly run toward and over soldiers who are firing rifles at them! I can see a bloodhound and a border collie among them. Very rare!
    Under a magnifier, you can clearly make out that one is a Border collie and another (trailing behind) is a bloodhound.
    The caption reads: In training to face rifle fire.
    This is a black-and-white plate from an extremely rare antique book from circa 1929. It has a blank back, meaning it was printed separately from the text for better quality and then tipped in or sewn into the book when it was bound. It would look wonderful framed.
    The paper is heavy and of quality. The page measures approx. 5.75 x 4.75 inches, and the picture (without margins) is approx. 4 x 3 inches.
    This is GENUINE antique/vintage item. It is not a modern reproduction.
    If you purchase more than one item from me, please REQUEST combined invoice BEFORE paying for a greatly reduced shipping costs. Otherwise, Ebay requires me to ship items separately if they are paid for separately.
