Description: An original photograph from a European traveler who visited many parts of war torn Europe in 1918-1919 just as the first world war was ending. Photographer and traveller name appears to be Sgt. Sessel.Type & Size: A 2.5x4.5" original photograph.Condition: Original from the end of the war and in fair antique condition. These originated from a scrapbook that was falling apart, and most photos have age wear, remnants of having been formerly mounted (residue on front or back), dirt, scratches, etc. Please see photos, which show a scan of both surfaces. This photograph shows the exterior of a corner building labeled "Rohde's Café" in Brooklyn, New York. The structure is made of brick with distinct architectural details around the windows. In the foreground, there are a few bare trees and cobblestoned streets, suggesting a quieter, possibly early morning or late evening setting.Rohde's Café may have served as a local gathering spot in Brooklyn during the late 1910s, a period when the area was rapidly developing. This location could have been a witness to significant historical changes during the aftermath of WWI, serving as a meeting place for residents and travelers alike.Visible text includes "Rohde's Café" and decorative elements around the awning near the entrance, but no additional identifiable names or signage are clear from the image that would require further listing.
