Elegant patriotic photo album

particular binder for postcard-size photographs and others, dating back to the Umbertina period, composed of an elaborate frame in gilded bronze with mercury, sculpted with patriotic-Savoy motifs, with a front cover covered with scarlet velvet and garnished with corners and a Savoy trophy in gilded bronze , resting on a bundle of weapons and loaded with a cartouche with the legend "R. Italian Army": overturning it, fifteen cardboard binders appear below, printed with scenes of military life and designed to contain photographs, a good percentage of them present and illustrating life and affections of an unidentified infantry officer. The album needs some small care to put it back together permanently (some retaining nails are missing but no component has been lost), it appears in any case in good condition with very well preserved gilding and velvet. measures 48X25X15 cm
