6052. Les manœuvres de 1913.
Would like to know the story behind this one.

Unused card.

Edit. Korniloff-Chaperon - nothing else on the back except "reproduction interdite".

You'd have to think that we're meant to know without being told who the central figures are. But what manoeuvres were occurring in 1913? I was assuming, given that it appears to be a French card, that it was the French army but perhaps it's another one.

Yes, it does look like Nicholas II from another Korniloff-Chaperon card. The company appears to have been based in Brussels, according to that card, but perhaps it was owned by Russians and/or specialized in Russian subjects. www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,0138065649,language,E.html

Thanks for your thoughts on this.
