The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 1
Drawn from a collection of military band negatives, these images move between rehearsal rooms, formal stage performances beneath the Great Seal, and studio portraits of enlisted servicemen. Candid moments and home-front portraits of women in mid-1940s dress round out a record of the people behind the music.
