An old repurposed book measuring 12.5 x 15 inches has been transformed into a scrapbook, dating back to the 1940s. The book is loose, with some pages separated or cut, and many are empty, indicating that items have been removed. It contains a few authentic photographs: one depicts a group of men labeled as "The Boys" from Ward B 13 at W.W.S.H. in Staunton, VA, with an arrow pointing to a man in the back row named "Percy." Several individuals in the front and middle rows are seen holding crutches. Another photograph features an African American soldier standing in front of military barracks. A third image, captioned "W.W. II Hospital," shows men seated outside a long brick barracks-style building, with a handwritten note at the top stating "Easter Sunday." Additionally, there is a photograph of a group of Black friends or family members enjoying a picnic outdoors, and another showing a group of African American friends or family members posing by the water, referred to as the "Avalon Gang,". The remainder of the scrapbook consists of clippings from magazines and newspapers..... Code Jsb 335
