In late summer of 1917 “The 1917 Posen Spoils of War Exhibition” (Kriegsbeute- Ausstellung Posen 1917) was launched in Frederic Park in Poznań (then Posen). The exhibition was part of a series of propaganda exhibitions organised in various cities of the German Reich aimed at presenting military successes of the German army in all fronts of the WWI. While the exhibition was still on, one of the bloodiest battles, the so-called Passchendaele battle (The Third Battle of Ypres) was raging in the Western front. The exhibition, widely reported and commented in the local Germanlanguage press at the time, has now been almost totally forgotten. The exhibition is brought to life by a series of picture postcards with photographic illustrations. The set of postcards comes from the collections of the iconographic material at the University Library in Poznań.

W zbiorach ikonograficznych Biblioteki Uniwersyteckiej w Poznaniu znajduje się seria widokówek dokumentujących zorganizowaną w 1917 roku Wystawę Zdobyczy Wojennych (Kriegsbeute-Ausstellung Posen 1917), jedną z serii propagandowych ekspozycji prezentujących sukcesy armii niemieckich na wszystkich frontach wielkiej wojny. W czasie trwania wystawy w pobliżu belgijskiego Passchendaele toczyła się jedna z najkrwawszych bitew, a w Poznaniu – codzienne życie w wojennej rzeczywistości.
