World War I, World War II War-Related Paper Ephemera. 

Largest Size: (photo) 9 x 7 in. 

This lot consists of war papers for Roy Stowe, who served in World War I and World War II, as well as war-related ephemera for Andrew Raymond and two 1833 enlistment documents for Nathan Ellis, Jr. from Blue Hill, Maine; Ellis enlisted in the Second Company of Light Infantry in the First Regiment of the First Brigade and Third Division of the Militia of Maine, and the documents bear the state seal of Maine. 
There are World War I photos of Roy Stowe in uniform, his discharge papers say he served at the Meuse Argonne, Chateaux Thierry, The Battle of the Marne, and Belleau Woods in France, notorious battles in World War I. There are Infantry leaflets from 1945 about the fighting in Asia and a leaflet from VE Day in Europe, which signaled the end of World War II, two letters from American soldiers fighting in France and Germany towards the end of the war, and apparently Stowe was a beloved figure by the men in his outfit.  
There are four military photos of Roy Stowe, more than 40 war-related letters, two wartime postcards, three War Ration books from World War II (with stamps), four newspaper clippings, medical records from the war, and one piece of V mail.  
Wear, curls and creased edges on some pieces, and overall a fascinating collection of war-related ephemera.
