Klemp was a member of the Deutschen Maler-Bundes (German Painters' Association) and owned a house painting business, as well as a side photography business, in Podgórz, then West Prussia. Podgórz, which still exists, is a district of the city of Toruń in now Poland. Klemp was 32 at the outbreak of World War I in 1914, and he reluctantly served as a medic with the German Army. He sent dozens of postcards from the Eastern Front to his wife, Martha Klemp, and other friends and family. Many of these postcards were photographic, and were shot and developed by Klemp during his military service.","Klemp also created watercolors, and ink and graphite drawings that portrayed camp life, landscapes of the war, and German troops.

The materials were created from circa 1892-1920s, with the bulk of materials created from 1914-1918. Many of the photographic postcards are group portraits of German soldiers, as well as images of military camp life, many of which feature Klemp. Several of the postcards have messages written in Kurrent and Latin script from Klemp to his wife, Martha Klemp, and other friends and family. Klemp sent postcards from across the Eastern Front, including Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, and Ukraine.\n\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003e\nAlso included in the collection are artworks created by Klemp during his time on the Eastern Front. These include watercolors, and ink and graphite drawings that portrayed camp life, landscapes of the war, and German troops. A couple of the pieces of art in this collection were likely painted by one of his fellow soldiers and acquired by Klemp during his service.\n\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003e\nTranscription and translation of text is provided where applicable in the inventory scope notes.\n\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eText in German: [print:] Interims-Lehrbrief | des | deutschen Maler-Bundes. | Der Inhaber Dieses | [ms:] Gustav Klemp | [print:] gebürtig aus [ms:] Exin | [print:] geboren [ms:] d. 16.

The materials were created from circa 1892-1920s, with the bulk of materials created from 1914-1918. Many of the photographic postcards are group portraits of German soldiers, as well as images of military camp life, many of which feature Klemp. Several of the postcards have messages written in Kurrent and Latin script from Klemp to his wife, Martha Klemp, and other friends and family. Klemp sent postcards from across the Eastern Front, including Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, and Ukraine.\n","\nAlso included in the collection are artworks created by Klemp during his time on the Eastern Front. These include watercolors, and ink and graphite drawings that portrayed camp life, landscapes of the war, and German troops. A couple of the pieces of art in this collection were likely painted by one of his fellow soldiers and acquired by Klemp during his service.\n","\nTranscription and translation of text is provided where applicable in the inventory scope notes.\n","Text in German: [print:] Interims-Lehrbrief | des | deutschen Maler-Bundes. | Der Inhaber Dieses | [ms:] Gustav Klemp | [print:] gebürtig aus [ms:] Exin | [print:] geboren [ms:] d. 16.

Klemp was a member of the Deutschen Maler-Bundes (German Painters' Association) and owned a house painting business, as well as a side photography business, in Podgórz, then West Prussia. Podgórz, which still exists, is a district of the city of Toruń in now Poland. Klemp was 32 at the outbreak of World War I in 1914, and he reluctantly served as a medic with the German Army. He sent dozens of postcards from the Eastern Front to his wife, Martha Klemp, and other friends and family. Many of these postcards were photographic, and were shot and developed by Klemp during his military service.","Klemp also created watercolors, and ink and graphite drawings that portrayed camp life, landscapes of the war, and German troops. Klemp survived the war, and after the creation of an independent Poland, he and his family were given the decision to become Polish citizens or emigrate. The Klemp family then immigrated to the United States and settled in the upper midwest, first in Iowa and then Wisconsin. Klemp made his living in the United States primarily by painting murals for churches. He died in May 1941 at the age of 59, six months before the United States entered World War II.","\nProcessing completed by Elizabeth Beckman in November 2014.

The materials were created from circa 1892-1920s, with the bulk of materials created from 1914-1918. Many of the photographic postcards are group portraits of German soldiers, as well as images of military camp life, many of which feature Klemp. Several of the postcards have messages written in Kurrent and Latin script from Klemp to his wife, Martha Klemp, and other friends and family. Klemp sent postcards from across the Eastern Front, including Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, and Ukraine.\n","\nAlso included in the collection are artworks created by Klemp during his time on the Eastern Front.

The materials were created from circa 1892-1920s, with the bulk of materials created from 1914-1918. Many of the photographic postcards are group portraits of German soldiers, as well as images of military camp life, many of which feature Klemp. Several of the postcards have messages written in Kurrent and Latin script from Klemp to his wife, Martha Klemp, and other friends and family. Klemp sent postcards from across the Eastern Front, including Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, and Ukraine.\n","\nAlso included in the collection are artworks created by Klemp during his time on the Eastern Front. These include watercolors, and ink and graphite drawings that portrayed camp life, landscapes of the war, and German troops. A couple of the pieces of art in this collection were likely painted by one of his fellow soldiers and acquired by Klemp during his service.\n","\nTranscription and translation of text is provided where applicable in the inventory scope notes.\n","Text in German: [print:] Interims-Lehrbrief | des | deutschen Maler-Bundes. | Der Inhaber Dieses | [ms:] Gustav Klemp | [print:] gebürtig aus [ms:] Exin | [print:] geboren [ms:] d. 16.

The following excerpts of the journal were provided by the seller: \"1921 \"December 30th, William O Kimball, Elbert A. Wickes and the proprietor of this hotel journeyed up from the Hub by train and Cadillac. Not enough snow for good shoeing but very beautiful in the woods. Went after rabbits Saturday afternoon and got on the hill back of Ammesley's. \"Smilo\" missed another. Sunday long walk in the woods and over the hill at the head of Rand Brook. Monday 8 degrees below zero and a wind. Went fishing through the ice on Mill Pond and caught one large chub. H.H.B.J. spent the evening at Billy's en-route for Newtonville. Here beginneth the log book….\" \"1922 \"December 30th, Billy Kim, Smilo and Bal en=route from 1 Upland Rd. Watertown, having spent the night at Smilo's. Picked up Lloyd Hayes at Belmont, to Barre by train. Lunch at Parker's. Drove to \"hole-in-the-wall\" in Sheldon's red truck. To camp on snow shoes over eighteen inches of snow. Many deer tracks on Sand Hill. Bright sunny day. Much chopping wood before supper. Walked by moonlight down Intervale Road and over Lion's Den Hill on snow shoes before going to bed at ten thirty…\" \"1923 \"May 29th, Bob, Billy, Dort and H.H.B.J. left Billy's house at 6:40 P.M. in \"Susan\" (A boat that many of them seem to talk about) Supper of steak and onions at Deloris's at Marlboro. Full moon. We reached camp at 11:15 to find that the camp had been broken into. Both hasps pried off. Somebody had slept in the bunk in South side and both H's split bamboo rods, two reels with line and all trout hooks stolen. To bed at mid night after setting camp to rights.\" \"1924 \"August 2nd, The good ship \"Annie Dodge\" with crew and passenger list; Malcolm Todd, Alice A. Todd, Almon McManus, Sadie Holem and Al Whitehill, tied up at Nichewaug after pleasant voyage from North Attleboro Mass. Noon by \"Fool Time\" Very low tide in \"Lake Ballard\" with water still dropping. Camp Arbutus seems even more attractive and heart satisfying than ever and all hands were gazing away from food during the noon meal. Saturday evening early set sail for Barre and convoyed the ancient craft \"Bessie Buick…….\" \"November 22nd, On Halloween at about 5:45 four daring souls took to the road in a trusty coach, a Winton, to face the \"haunts\" that are known to be about on such a night. A crescent moon shed an eerie light which did not dim the pumpkin lantern faces carried by spiritual figures in every town and hamlet. Worcester was safely reached where a fine dinner was enjoyed by the four H.H.B. Jr., the two Dort boys (Billy and Dick) and Cyclone Bob, at Hotel Warren. Out on the Paxton Road the six Winton Cylinders, brattling the spirit of night, road over the road to camp from Worcester in about an hour. The car was put in the barn and fires were built and all retired before midnight…Saturday morning a typical Nichewaug breakfast made every one happy and about noon all set out in the car to find the famed Royalston Falls, alias Forbes Falls, Royalston Gorge and Cascade Falls……\" 1925 July 14th, Malcolm J.
