GoranWC51 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Yes, Horch it is: The high resolution TIFF files lends themselves well to blowing up portions of the picture. Goran N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertBlooms88 Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Stumbled on another Library of Congres photo which comes from the same period i think. German Army soldiers and unidentified lorry at Aqaba, Palestine - Probably a World War One period photo.
