"At close grips with the Hun." Staged scene of two British soldiers assaulting a German bunker, c. 1918. One of a number of similar photographs taken at the same bunker. Animated stereoview.

Not sure if the two were released in the same stereoview series, but this one was published by Realistic Travels.

Another half stereoview I believe to be part of the same series and published by Realistic Travels:
