Here is a color halftone portrait of Erwin Rommel, the German field marshal born in 1891 and dead in 1944. Rommel earned the nickname "Desert Fox" for his command of German forces in North Africa during the Second World War, where his armored campaigns made him one of the best-known military figures of the era. The record gives no date for this print, and its caption card is unverified, so the image is best read as a mass-produced reproduction from the period when Rommel's name was in newspapers and magazines worldwide. Halftone printing of this kind was how such portraits reached wide audiences.
