The Librarian brought me one of OGS’s rare books today to take a look at. It’s “An illustrated and descriptive art collection of America's new possessions; beautiful color photos, every picture from actually taken on the spot” from 1901. Full of colorized images from the Spanish-American War in the Philippines like this one showing an Army block house on the outskirts of Manilla.
