Extremely rare never been seen French Foreign Legion 734

Extremely rare never been seen French Foreign Legion 734

Extremely rare never been seen French Foreign Legion 734 photograph slides in colour and about 20 slides in black and white. I served in the French Foreign Legion from to and was the official photographer and these slides (photographs) have never been seen before and some would never become available to the public. After 27 years in storage I have decided to sell my collection of these very rare picture slides. The slides are from operational duties, to the 14th July to photos of the Legion in Hong Kong. The buyer would own the copyright to all of these pictures and each one could be reprinted again and again. I am asking in the region of £ for this never before seen collection. Viewing by appointment is available upon request. Many thanks.
