Offered on ebay is a photo album from an African American family containing 50 photos of various sizes, dating from 1940-1945. The majority of them document a young man's life first as a high school student hanging out with his friends and then as a military man.
But there's a hidden treasure: one of the 5" x 7" photos pictures Duke Ellington and Ray Nance with a group of injured soldiers at Mayo General Hospital "Reconditioning Section" in Rochester, Minn. on July 25, 1944.
