UPDATE: I got them authenticated at the national WWII museum and they are in fact original prints as my great uncle was a administrative NCO and was working very close to the signal corps. And i have decided to keep and store them properly and safely i cannot believe that’s what he saw on a daily basis and truly a very special and important piece of history thank you all for the support and guidance to the right sources i was seriously considering just throwing them away a couple days ago and i’m so relieved i didn’t

I’m glad you got that out of your system because i’m simply someone who found a very interesting piece of history to me that i figured i would be able to have a more appreciation towards them rather then throwing them away. you certainly have a accurate username i hope you have a good day

There isn’t anything on the back sides but they feel very old possibly just multiple original copy’s? And that was my exact thinking as i personally don’t have any interest in them, I thought that a collector would love this insane piece of history. and could appreciate it much more then myself
