German Soldiers on the March

German soldiers on the march. No further details known, although as there appear to be some flowers by the side of the road, and by the general look of the countryside, this could be somewhere on the Western Front in late spring or early summer 1940. Interestingly, the NCO on the left and the officer on horseback have distinctive light-colored tunics. There appear to be two civilians on bicycles on the right-hand side of the image. This slide was in reasonable condition, but with some of the usual cyan/blue colour shift, damage and staining. With this kind of restoration, I never know what to expect, but I am pleasantly surprised at how it has turned out. The look of the ‘Agfacolor’ edge marking is not correct, and this is a consequence of the manipulation that was required. Drum scan of an original Agfacolor slide. Not previously published.
