Vintage Postcard WW2 RPPC Military Uniform Soldier Hosiery Street Sign Portrait

This postcard is a piece of service history from the Second World War. It highlights the prevalent mid-century street photography trend where commercial photographers snapped candid photos of soldiers, service members, and citizens on city sidewalks, handing them a slip to purchase the developed photo postcard later.

The background features wonderful vintage commercial storefront signs, including a prominent sign reading "HOSIERY" and a larger corporate storefront sign on the left
