[Transcriber's note: The back shown on this image carries a Chester County (Phoenixville) local board stamp and registrar, although the front gives a Stoney Point, Bucks County residence. On these microfilm images the back beneath each front belongs to the card filmed on the preceding image, so this back is probably not Anton Reitter's; his own back would appear on image 4128633_01552.]
