Description

“H.M.S. IMPREGNABLE photo card. Gus(?) Springham [illegible] Billy Springham Fontinettes”

A “fontinette” was a lift lock system in France. It is unclear what the term refers to in the context of this card. The card does recall that many families had multiple sons and brothers in different branches of the service at the same time.
