The cover's description printed on its reverse is:
Cover: Combat Cameraman ... That glamor guy on the front cover looks like Hollywood's version of the AAF all set to soar through the wild blue yonder. Well, actually he is - and, actually, there's a Hollywood angle to it. Cpl. Mike Gerardi, who used to "just work around" Amsterdam. N.Y., is a member of a Fifth Air Force Combat Camera Unit, guys who make documentary and action movie films of the war in the Southwest Pacific. That's an Eyemo 35-mm camera Mike is holding. That's a far away look he's holding, too. ....... Filming the Fifth Air Force in Action
For the collector, historian, veteran, society, reunion, event or show, the collection of "Covers of WWII Series" brings back the memories and history of this great conflict.
These postcards have been produced on heavy glossy stock paper and the watermark appears on the eBay listing only, not the postcard.
The image on eBay is not as clear as the actual postcard's quality.
These Postcards will fit nicely in a 5x7 picture frame for display.
