1907137343London: His Majesty's Stationary Office 1907. Undetermined. very good. Original broadside. 13.25" X 8.25". A few small chips and closed tears to edges not touching text. Ink of a few words slightly smudged. Three old horizontal folds else a bright and clean broadside. very good A scarce piece of postal ephemera advertising the new mail route through Siberia to the "Far East". The mail took a circuitous route leaving London and arriving in Vladivostok via express train from Moscow. The mail was then sent through the Siberian wilderness aboard Russian steamers "as opportunities offered" to destinations such as Hong Kong Shanghai and Canton. An interesting broadside only hinting at what must have been a harrowing journey for the First Class Mails through the wild watercourses of Siberia. 1907 His Majesty's Stationary Office unknown

19223734Vladivostok Russia; China; Japan; Philippines; Cuba; Panama; and Egypt 1922. Very good plus. Ninety-six real photo postcards postcards and photographs each about 3.5 x 5.5 inches or slightly smaller. A very well-preserved group arranged in clear plastic sleeves in a brad-bound folder. An informative and ultimately unique collection of mostly annotated images documenting the military exploits of Lester W. Soden of Portland Oregon a Navy Midshipman serving in important locations in Asia and elsewhere in the years immediately following World War I. Soden sent the postcards and photographs home to various family members and friends in Portland Oregon. On the verso of the great majority of the postcards and photographs Soden has added vital typed or handwritten captions describing the subject location or other important information for each image as well as occasionally adding a personal note about them. Most of the images do not exhibit postmarks so were likely sent along by Soden with letters.<br /> <br /> Most important among Soden's experiences here and encompassing almost half of the images forty-seven in fact was his time in Vladivostok Russia in 1918-1920 as part of the American Expeditionary Force Siberia. All but four of the postcards and photographs from Russia have typed captions on the verso providing critical background information on Soden's experiences. Soden's captions run from one line "Street scene in Vladdie" to a couple of lines "View of Vladivostok Siberia showing section of the city along the tracks of the Siberian railroad and one of the fine Russian churches in the back ground. This was taken but a week ago" to detailed much longer efforts for example: "Since coming to Siberia I have not seen a single saw mill where modern machinery such as power driven saws and etc was used. Here is a picture I took the other day in Vladivostok showing the Asiatic method of making lumber. The Chinamen do the work two men to a saw one on top of the framework that serves for a work bench the other stands on the ground and away they saw on logs turning out lumber of various thicknesses. When first I witnessed such ancient methods it seemed as tho I had stepped into a land of long ago but time has accustomed me to such sights in Siberia."<br /> <br /> Soden's other images provide a deep picture of the Vladivostok area at a crucial time in its history picturing street scenes the funeral of "a deceased shipmate who died at Vladivostok" the Bay of the Golden Horn Japanese headquarters and a Japanese market in the city troops and ships from other Allied countries a YMCA train car serving coffee to soldiers a Bolshevik armored car stuck in the mud a portrait of Czech leader General Radola Gajda here spelled Gaida two images of Gajda's armored train car which he used in a failed attempt to occupy Vladivostok in 1918 and much more. Part of the Allied mission in Vladivostok involved protecting and providing passage for Czech troops who had fought for their own freedom against Lenin and the Russian revolutionaries. One of Soden's captions concern these freedom fighters: "Czech troops along the trans-Siberian R.R. coming into Vladivostok. They have some sort of decorations on the cars. You will notice the odd style of cars used with single axeled wheels that are not solid steel like the car wheels we have in the States where only double tracks are used. The cars here are very short tho once in a while one notices standard sized cars with double tracks identical to the ones used in the States in fact they were built there."<br /> <br /> In addition to his time in Siberia Soden also served in China Japan Manchuria the Philippines Egypt Panama and Cuba. Seventeen postcards document his experiences in China as well as sixteen in Japan and Manchuria eight in the Philippines and the remainder from Egypt Panama and Cuba. Most of these images are also captioned on the verso picturing street scenes a Peking sawmill the city of Shanghai Tartar Wall Hankow a Dragon Festival in Hong Kong the Nanking Road and more in China. Most of the Japanese images show the celebrations in Tokyo for the return of Hirohito from a tour of Europe but also temples in Nikko the American fleet in Yokohama and two street views of Dairen City Manchuria. Other images depict a child's funeral "The other day I was lucky enough to see a native funeral one of the strangest sights I've ever seen. You would think it's a parade" and a Manila river scene in the Philippines; Guantanamo Bay in Cuba; the United Fruit Company's offices in Panama; and more. The only non-visual item included with the postcards and photographs is a black ribbon reading "U.S.S. Scorpion" presumably Soden's ship. unknown
19223735Mainly Vladivostok 1922. Very good. 261 images about half real photo postcards and half vernacular photographs between 2.5 x 1.5 inches and 3.5 x 5.5 inches. Oblong folio. Contemporary brown leather photograph album string-tied. Lacking fore-edge flap spine chipped moderate rubbing and scuffing to boards. Minor occasional wear to photographs. A unique collection of photographs documenting the joint military expedition by Allied Forces into Vladivostok in southeastern Russia after the conclusion of World War I the October Revolution and the Russian Civil War most likely assembled by an American soldier serving there at the time. The American contingent of the incursion was called the American Expeditionary Force Siberia which partnered with nine other countries to attempt to bring stability to the region rescue 40000 members of the Czechoslovakian Legion being held up by Bolsheviks outside Vladivostok protect and retrieve American supplies in eastern Russia and stem the early spread of Communism. A similar expedition to northern Russia now known as the Polar Bear Expedition was attempted in Archangel. By practically every standard the joint missions failed and in fact damaged relations between the Allied Forces and Russia especially for the United States for decades to come. <br /> <br /> The present collection of photographs and real-photo postcards opens with several photo postcards with printed captions showing parades of the military forces of the various Allied countries who participated in the expedition to Vladivostok as they arrived in the city. These include the British Army landing in Vladivostok the Imperial Japanese Expedition marching in front of the Czech Headquarters the Japanese Vanguard relieving the Imperial Japanese Naval Party the French Army landing in the city the Allied Naval Fleet in the Vladivostok harbor and two views of the landing of the American Army. Two additional captioned postcards show the Czech forces joining the French Army and a rather shocking image of about ten dead Czech soldiers with the image captioned "Czech victims in vicinity of Nicholoske former Bolshevik Head-quarters at Vladivostok." <br /> <br /> The remainder of the photo postcards and photographs capture additional parades numerous street scenes but also scores of images showing the outskirts and countryside around Vladivostok ships from various countries anchored in the harbor or trying to navigate the icy conditions military patrols often carrying weapons American and other soldiers interacting with the locals scenes along the railway views of refugees fleeing the region and much more. Upon arriving in Vladivostok American soldiers were tasked with guarding segments of the rail lines of the Trans-Siberian Railroad running into and out of Vladivostok. American forces are seen here performing those duties but also overseeing a temporary dormitory of beds in an evacuation hospital patrolling the area around the city as well as the refugees along the railway hanging out in their makeshift barracks and more with one image even showing a group of American soldiers posing in baseball uniforms.<br /> <br /> Particularly striking are the images of the indigenous refugees posed near the railroad and in other locations. Some of the subjects appear to be Siberian nomads but others traveling along the rail line are almost certainly Czech refugees fleeing Russia after their role in fighting for their own freedom against the new Russian regime. Several photos here capture groups of people obviously en route to somewhere else along the railroad at train depots and resting in makeshift encampments or tent cities overseen by military personnel.<br /> <br /> Historical material from the Vladivostok expedition is exceedingly rare especially images of soldiers with boots on the ground. The present collection provides a fascinating glimpse of life in Vladivostok during this volatile moment in Russian history as well as a notable instance when American and Allied gunboat diplomacy utterly failed. unknown
